In which of the following substances does sharing of electrons between two atoms occur?

Chemistry

malfutka [58]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:- B- SO_4^-^2

Explanations:- Sharing of electrons takes place between non metals and the bond formed by the sharing of electrons is known as covalent bond. In first choice we only have a zinc metal and so no sharing of electrons  would be possible here.

In third choice we have NaCl. Na is a metal and Cl is a non metal. The property of metals is to transfer its valence electrons to the non metal and the bond formed is known as ionic bond. So, third choice is also not correct.

In choice B we have sulfate ion that has sulfur and oxygen atoms and both of these are non metals. So, sharing of electrons is present here between the S and O atoms and covalent bonds are formed.

So, choice B- SO_4^-^2 is the right answer.

Convert 7.1x10^25 molecules of water to moles
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

<h2>117.94 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{7.1 \times  {10}^{25} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 117.940199...

We have the final answer as

<h3>117.94 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
