Answer/Explanation:

A lightning rod is a metal rod that is used to dislocate where lighting hits. Lightning is going to hit the closest point that it has been attracted too. So, the lightning rod was invented to attract lighting to something less potentially dangerous. Instead of hitting a building causing fires and collapsing, it takes the bolt so that nothing else has to.

When a hydrogen atom covalently bonds to another atom, how many electrons associated with this hydrogen atom become involved in
STatiana [176]

Explanation:

A covalent bond is defined as the occurrence of a bond due to the sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

Atomic number of hydrogen atom is 1 and its electronic configuration is 1s^{2}. So, in order to complete its octet it needs to gain or mutually shares one electron.

A covalent bond is generally formed between non-metal atoms.

Thus, we can conclude that hydrogen has only one electron that will be involved in the formation of a covalent bond.

Draw the structure of the compound C9H12 from its proton (1H) NMR spectrum below. First-order spin-spin splitting rules and equa
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Isopropylbenzene

Explanation:

If you draw the structure, you can see that there are two methyl groups and in between there.

Adjacent to CH3, there are four neighbouring hydrogens, therefore, n=4+1 = 5. The same is for methyl on other side. For carbon present in benzene ring,  there is 2, since there is one hydrogen on benzene per carbon.
