Answer :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

The given molecule is, $BeF_2$

Beryllium has '2' valence electrons and fluorine has '7' valence electrons. Beryllium is the central atom and fluorine is the terminal atom.

Total number valence electrons in $BeF_2$ = 2 + 2(7) = 16

According to the Lewis-dot structure, there are '4' number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons (lone-pair).

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.

Fission reactions are induced in nuclear power plants because they produce great amounts of energy. Often, a nucleus must be for

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Chain reaction

Explanation:

A chain reaction is a reaction that sustains itself. It has the ability to continue for a very long time without adding any more materials to the reaction system. It may be succinctly described as a self propagating reaction.

In a nuclear fission, uranium-235 is bombarded with neutrons to produce unstable uranium-236 which disintegrates to form daughter nuclei and produce more neutrons that bombard more uranium-235 and the reaction continues indefinitely.

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.
