A COVALENT BOND, FORMS BETWEEN ELEMENTS WITH SIMILAR  ELECTRONEGATIVITY AS SHARING OF ELECTRON PAIRS BETWEEN ATOMS IS EASIER AS THEY ARE IDENTICAL.

Explanation:

Bonding atoms with similar electronegativity values form covalent bonds.

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Covalent bonds form between two nonmetal atoms with identical or relatively close electronegativity values

Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons, also it is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself.

Pure covalent bonds result when two atoms of the same electronegativity bond. This occurs only when two atoms of the same element bond with each other.

Answer: Period 2 has much more conclusive trends. For all elements in period 2, as the atomic number increases, the atomic radius of the elements decreases, the electronegativity increases, and the ionization energy increases

If you set up an experiment with two different independent variables, then the results would be_____.
MariettaO [177]

Answer: A) Inconclusive; you would not know which of the two variables caused the change.

Explanation:

When you set up an experiment, you must make sure that you control the variables such that only one independent variable changes at a time, while all the remainder conditions (the other independent variables) are controlled (fixed).

By observing (measuring) the dependent variable, while only one independent variable changes you can understandhow such independent variable explains (determines) the dependent variable, leading to a conclusion.

Conversely, if two or more independent variables change at a time, then there is no way that you can tell how the output (dependent variable) is related with one or other of the changes of the indipendent variables. You wolud not be able to discriminate (distinguish) the effect of one or other variable, making the experiment inconclusive

I really hope this answer helps you out! It makes my day helping people like you and giving back to the community that has helped me through school! If you could do me a favor, if this helped you and this is the very best answer and you understand that all of my answers are legit and top notch. Please mark as brainliest! Thanks and have a awesome day!

Suppose you have a mixture of copper sulfate (CuSO4) and azulene (C10H8, you may wish to know the structure of azulene). Both co
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Aqueous layer (1 M HCI)

Explanation:

First of us I want to remind you of the cliché in chemistry that like dissolves like. In solvent extraction, a mixture is dissolved in a system consisting of two immiscible solvents. One layer is organic while the other layer is aqueous.

Polar substances partition in the aqueous layer while nonpolar substances partition in the organic layer.

Since Copper sulfate is ionic, we will find it in the aqueous layer according to the old chemistry cliche.

How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 g of ccl4? How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 of ? 4.77×1022 atoms?
mash [69]

Answer:- 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms.

Solution:- We have been given the grams of carbon tetrachloride and asked to calculate the number of atoms of chlorine. It is a three step conversion problem. In the first we convert the grams of carbon tetrachloride to moles of it. In second step we convert moles of carbon tetrachloride to moles of chlorine and in the third step we convert the moles of chlorine to atoms of chlorine.

For grams to mole conversion we need the molar mass of the compound. Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 grams per mol. If we look at the formula of carbon tetrachloride then four chlorine are present in it. It means 1 mol of carbon tetrachloride has four moles of chlorine. The calculations are as follows:

12.2gCCl_4(\frac{1molCCl_4}{153.82gCCl_4})(\frac{4molCl}{1molCCl_4})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3Clatoms}{1molCl})

= 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms

So, there are 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms in 12.2 grams of CCl_4 .

Write the autoionization reaction for methanol, ch3oh.
aliina [53]
Autoionization Reactions are those reactions in which ions or molecules ionizes spontaneously without adding any external reagent.

For Example,
                    Autoionization of water.

                               H₂O  +  H₂O   ⇆   H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

Autoionization reaction of Methanol is shown below,
