For multiple covalent bonds to form in molecules, the molecules must contain carbon nitrogen or oxygen.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Think about carbon dioxide (CO2). If every oxygen atom imparts one electron to the carbon molecule, there will be 6 electrons in carbon particle and 7 electrons in every oxygen atom. This doesn't give the carbon atom as a total octet.
- Sometimes more than one set of electrons is shared between two atoms. In carbon dioxide, a second electron from every oxygen atom is likewise imparted with the central carbon atom, and the carbon particle imparts one more electron with every oxygen atom.
- Two sets of electrons shared between two atoms make a double bond between the atoms. A few particles contain triple bonds, covalent bonds in which three sets of electrons are shared by two atoms.
The answer is O2.
The ionic charge of something can be determined by it's place in the periodic table.
To determine the molar mass, you need to get the atomic mass of the molecule. To do this, check the periodic table for the atomic mass or average atomic weight of each element.
Mg = 24.305 x 1 = 24.305 amu
O = 15.9994 x 2 =31.9988 amu
H = 1.0079 x 2 = 2.0158 amu
Then, add all the components to get the atomic mass of the molecule.
24.305 amu + 31.9988 amu + 2.0158 amu = 58.3196 amu
The atomic mass is just equivalent to its molar mass.
So, the molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is 58.3196 g/mol.
Answer:
If I could have a super power it would be invisibility. Sometimes you wish you weren't there and if you were hiding from someone then they couldn't find you.
