Answer:

c=3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s

Explanation:

The speed of light is 3\times 10^8\ m/s. It is required to convert it into nm/s.

The relation between nm and m is as follows :

1\ nm=10^{-9}\ m\\\\1\ m=10^9\ nm

So,

c=3\times 10^8\ m/s \\\\c=3\times 10^8\times 10^9\ nm/s\\\\c=3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s

So, the speed of light is 3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s.

How is electronegativity used in determining the ionic or covalent character of the bonding between two elements?
madam [21]

Answer:

If the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms are too much high ionic bonds are formed if the electronegativity diference is 0.4 or less than 0.4 non polar covalnet bond formed the difference greater than 0.4 polar covalent bond formed.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Can someone help? <br><br> Name the compound:
Serhud [2]

CH=benzene

Why?

benzene is represented by the empirical formula CH, which indicates that a typical sample of the compound contains one atom of carbon (C) to one atom of hydrogen (H).
