“About 300 kilometers across have irregular shapes because their internal gravity is not strong enough to compress the rock into a spherical shape” so I’m guessing it’s false ?
Forming a covalent bond
A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons. Covalent bonding occurs in most non-metal elements, and in compounds formed between non-metals.
These shared electrons are found in the outer shells of the atoms. Usually each atom contributes one electron to the shared pair of electrons.
The slideshow shows how a covalent bond forms between a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom, making hydrogen chloride.
Structures of a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom.
1. A hydrogen atom with one electron and a chlorine atom with 17 electrons
Molecules
Most covalently bonded substances consist of small molecules. A molecule is a group of two or more atoms joined together by covalent bonds. Molecules of the same element or compound always contain the same number of atoms of each element.
The atoms in a molecule are always joined together by a covalent bond. Substances that are made up of ions do not form molecules.
Sizes of atoms and simple molecules
A small molecule contains only a few atoms, so atoms and small molecules have a similar range of sizes. They are very small, typically around 0.1 nm or 1 × 10-10 m across.

The question is incomplete, here is a complete question.
An arctic weather balloon is filled with 27.8 L of helium gas inside a prep shed. The temperature inside the shed is 13 ⁰C. The balloon is then taken outside, where the temperature is -9 ⁰C. Calculate the new volume of the balloon. You may assume the pressure on the balloon stays constant at exactly 1 atm. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
Answer : The new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L
Explanation :
Charles's Law : It is defined as the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.
or,
where,
= initial volume of gas = 27.8 L
= final volume of gas = ?
= initial temperature of gas = 
= final temperature of gas = 
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:
Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L
Answer:
e. 3.08 x 10⁻² mol of ions.
Explanation:
- Every 1.0 mole of any compound contains Avogadro's number of molecules (6.022 x 10²³).
- We can get the no. of moles of NiCl₂ using cross multiplication:
1.0 mol NiCl₂ contains → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.
??? mol NiCl₂ contains → 6.188 x 10²¹ molecules.
∴ The no. of moles of NiCl₂ = (1.0 mol)(6.188 x 10²¹ molecules)/(6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 1.028 x 10⁻² mol.
- NiCl₂ is ionized according to the equation:
NiCl₂ → Ni²⁺ + 2Cl⁻.
Which means that every 1.0 mol of NiCl₂ is ionized to produce 3.0 moles (1.0 mol of Ni²⁺ and 2 moles of Cl⁻).
<em>∴ The total moles of ions are released</em> = 3 x 1.028 x 10⁻² mol = <em>3.083 x 10⁻² mol of ions.</em>
