Chemistry
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. the relative number of atoms of each element, using the lowest whole ratio.

Explanation:

The empirical formula is how we simplify the whole formula to simplify it to its smallest indivisible parts.

It is definitely not the actual number of atoms. If you see an empirical formula, don't think that it's the full thing.

It is also not a representation of a compound to show its atoms' arrangement: this would be a Lewis dot structure, or a ball and stick model, or something similar. We don't use the empirical formula for this purpose.

Fill in the blanks: Electrons are ___ in an ionic bond, whereas they are___ in a polar covalent bond, and ___ in a nonpolar cova
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "transferred; unequally shared; equally shared".

Explanation:

Ionic bonding occurs when a positively charged atom (cation) interacts with a negatively charged atom (anion). In ionic bonding, the cation transfers its electron to the anion. In polar covalent bonding, electrons are unequally shared. This means that the electrons spend more time in an atom than the other, which gives partial positive and negative charges to the atoms. On the other hand in nonpolar covalent bonding, the electrons are equally shared and no charges are created.
