Similarities and differences between covalent bonds and molecular interactions

1 answer:

3 0

Covalent bonds are formed between atoms which have
- unsatisfied valency 
- no inert gas electronic configuration 
- These are directional bonds 
- formed by sharing of electrons 

Intermolecular forces 
- much weaker than covalent bond 
- These are not directional (except Hydrogen bonds) 
- These are more electrostatic in nature 
- exist between stable molecules 
- can be Hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole and induced dipole-induced dipole

Which of these elements is this group?

sergey [27]

Answer:

Strontium

Explanation:

In the periodic table, an element with two (2) valence electrons is found on group 2. Group 2 is a group of the periodic table that harbors element called ALKALINE EARTH METALS. As the name implies, they are metals that possess shiny and solid characteristics at room temperature.

Group 2 elements include the following: Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), and radium (Ra). Based on the descriptive information in this question, the element being described is a GROUP 2 element. Based on the elements in the option, only STRONTIUM (Sr) is a group 2 element.

A cell contains the same DNA as its parent cell. This is a result of which process? mitosis meiosis gamete formation fertilizati

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Mitosis

Explanation:

A cell that contains the same DNA as its parent cell is a product of mitosis.

Mitosis is a cell division process that takes place in somatic cells.
In meiosis a single cell divides to produce two daughter cells each having the same DNA as the parent
Mitosis ensures that the same DNA is found between the parent
Mitosis is used for repairing and production of new cells.

Neutral atoms of argon, atomic number 18, have the same number of electrons as each of the following items except: Cl- S -2 K+ C

irinina [24]

Answer:

Ne.

Explanation:

Neutral argon, atomic number 18, has 18 electrons.

Cl⁻:

Neutral atom of Cl, atomic number 17, has 17 electrons.

When it gains electron and be Cl⁻, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

S²⁻:

Neutral atom of S, atomic number 16, has 16 electrons.

When it gains 2 electrons and be S²⁻, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

K⁺:

Neutral atom of K, atomic number 19, has 19 electrons.

When it losses electron and be K⁺, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

Ca²⁺:

Neutral atom of Ca, atomic number 20, has 20 electrons.

When it losses 2 electrons and be Ca²⁺, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

Ne:

It is a noble gas that has 10 electrons.

So, the right choice is: Ne.
