If the atoms that share electrons have an unequal attraction for electrons, the bond is called a Polar covalent bond.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>A covalent chemical bond is formed in case of two different non-metals when one or more electron pairs are shared between bonding atoms. A difference in electronegativity of subsequent atoms of a covalent bond leads to formation of a small net charge around nucleus of each atom, pulling the shared electrons to one side of the bond, to the nucleus which has higher electronegativity.
HCl is an example of polar covalent bond and the HCl bond has Chlorine more electronegative. The bonding electrons are more close to Cl than H and hence Cl is partially negatively charged than H which has partial positive charge (HCl bond : ). When electrons shared in a covalent bond have equal attraction, the bond is a Non-Polar covalent bond.
Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b) and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:
c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is . Then
Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
