answer is covalent bond because carbon has 4 valence electron and shared them hence it is a covalent bond.

In most cases, carbon shares electrons with other atoms (usual valence of 4). This is because carbon typically bonds with elements which have a similar electronegativity. Examples of covalent bonds formed by carbon include carbon-carbon, carbon-hydrogen, and carbon-oxygen bonds

What kind of chemical bonds are represented by the product in the following diagram?

katovenus [111]

The chemical bonds in CH4 are all single bonds. C only can bond 4 times because it needs 8 electrons in it's outer shell and only has four right now. The bonds represented are all single bonds because there are two electrons present on each side of the carbon. Two electrons, in this case, equals one bond.

3.95 g of sugar (C6H12O6) is dissolved in water to make 158 mL of solution. Find the molarity.

12345 [234]

Answer:

[C₆H₁₂O₆] = 0.139 M

Explanation:

Molarity si defined as a sort of concentration. It indicates the moles of solute that are contained in 1 L of solution.

We can also say, that molarity are the mmoles of solute contained in 1 mL of solution.

For this case, the solute is sugar (glucose). Let's determine M (mmol/mL)

(3.95 g . 1mol / 180g) . (1000 mmol / 1mol) / 158 mL

We determine moles, we convert them to mmoles, we divide by mL

M = 0.139 M

Moles = 3.95 g . 1mol / 180g → 0.0219 mol

We convert mL to L → 158 mL . 1L/1000mL = 0.158L

M = 0.0219 mol / 0.158L = 0.139 M

Phosphorus pentachloride decomposes to phosphorus trichloride at high temperatures according to the equation:

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

D) [PCl5]=0.00765M,[PCl3]=0.117M,and [Cl2]=0.0.117M

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

PCl₅(g) ⇄ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

And knowing:

Kc = [PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

When you add PCl₅ into a flask, this gas will react producing PCl₃ and Cl₂ until [PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

This could be written as:

[PCl₃] = X

[Cl₂] = X

[PCl₅] = 0.125M - X

<em>Where X represents the moles of PCl₅ that react, </em><em>reaction coordinate.</em>

Replacing in Kc expression:

[PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

[X [X] / [0.125 - X] = 1.80

X² = 0.225 - 1.80X

0 = -X² -1.80X + 0.225

Solving for X:

X = -1.9M → False solution, there is no negative concentrations

X = 0.11735M → Right solution.

Replacing, concentrations in equilibrium are:

[PCl₃] = X

[Cl₂] = X

[PCl₅] = 0.125M - X

[PCl₃] = 0.117M

[Cl₂] = 0.117M

[PCl₅] = 0.00765M

And right option is:

Answer:

Difference in the potential energy of the reactants and products

Explanation:

The products have a lower potential energy than the reactants, and the sign of ΔH is negative. In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed. The products have a higher potential energy than the reactants, and the sign of ΔH is positive.
