Explain how atoms are held together in covalent bonds. Give an example of a covalent compound.

Chemistry
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms are held together by covalent bonds when they share electrons between themselves.

Covalent bonds are bonds that are formed between non-metals usually with a low electronegative difference between them. In this bond type, two non-metals donate electrons which are shared between the combining atoms and this makes them both like the corresponding noble gases. The shared electrons is what forms the covalent bonds.

An example of covalent bond is HCl, H₂S, SO₂, CO₂, O₂ etc

If a gas furnace releases 420 kcal of heat energy, what is the energy in kilojoules? (1 cal = 4.184 J)
Igoryamba
Answer:
The furnace releases 1757280 J 

Explanation:
We will do the conversion on two steps:
1- convert the kcal to cal
2- convert the cal to J

Step 1: converting kcal to cal
1 kcal is equivalent to 1000 cal. Therefore:
420 kcal is equivalent to 420*1000 = 420000 cal

Step 2: converting cal to J
We are given that:
<span>1 cal = 4.184 J
</span>Therefore:
420000 cal is equivalent to 420000 * 4.184 = 1757280 J

A package contains 1.33 lb of ground round. If it contains 29% fat, how many grams of fat are in the ground round? The book is s
Effectus [21]

Answer:

To obtain the grams of fat that the ground round has, knowing that it weighs 1.33 pounds we must pass this value to grams. Since 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, 1.33 pounds equals 603.27 (453.59 x 1.33).

Now, to obtain 29 percent of 603.27, we must make the following calculation: 603.27 / 100 x 29, which gives a total of 174.94 grams.

In this way, your reasoning is correct and it is probably a mistake in the book.

in which of the following aqueous solutions would you expect AgCl to have the HIGHEST solubility?a) Pure Waterb) 0.015 M NaClc)
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Pure Water

Explanation:

The common ion effect describes the effect on ​equilibrium that occurs when a common ion (an ion that is already contained in the solution) is added to a solution. The common ion effect generally decreases ​solubility of a solute(Khan Academy).

NaCl, AgNO3, KCl, BaCl2 solutions all have a common ion with AgCl. As a result of this, AgCl will be much less soluble in these solvents than it is in pure water.

Therefore, AgCl will have the highest solubility in pure water compared to all the solutions listed above.
