What is different between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nana76 [90]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing. 2. Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less extreme.

Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s). If a box is not needed leave it blank. If no reaction occurs leav
babunello [35]

Answer:

H+  +  OH−  --> H2O

Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid is represented by the chemical formular; HCl. This is an ionic substance so in water it breaks apart into hydrohrn ions; H+ and chloride ions; Cl−. It is a strong acid, hence it completely dissociates.

Potassium Hydroxide is also an ionic substance it also breaks apart in water into potassium ions; K+ and hydroxide ions; OH−. It is a strong base, hence it completely dissociates.

The complete ionic equation for the reaction is given as;

H+  +  Cl−  +  K+  +  OH−  -->  K+  +  Cl−  +  H2O

The Hydrogen ion and the Hydroxide ions combine to form water.

The net ionic equation is given as;

H+  +  OH−  --> H2O

Cl- and K+ ions were cancelled out because they do not undergo any changes therefore are not part of the net ionic equation. They are referred to as spectator ions.

How can understanding atomic light help astronomers determine what planets are composed of?
GuDViN [60]

The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy. This process utilizes instruments with a grating that spreads out the light from an object by wavelength. This spread-out light is called a spectrum. Every element has a unique fingerprint that allows researchers to determine what it is made of.

The fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy levels. But when photons carrying energy hit an electron, they can push it to higher energy levels. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.  

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.

What is the mass in grams of 2.8 x 10^19 formula units of beryllium nitrate
makkiz [27]
To convert the formula unit to mass, we need to divide the given formula units by Avogadro's number, 6.022 x 10^23 and we get the mole of beryllium nitrate. To convert to mass, we need to multiply the number of moles with the molecular formula of the compound which is 133.022 g/mol.The answer is 0.006185 g or 6.185 mg.
