In which type of chemical bonding are electrons shared between adjacent atoms?

1 answer:

3 0

In covalent bonding electrons are shared betweed adjacent atoms.

This kind of bonding means that none of the atoms are detached from its electrons.

A molecule of compound is formed when two or more atoms are bonded through covalent bonds. The electrons shared are considered part of the valence electrons (outer energy level) of both atoms forming the covalent bonding.

Answer:

See Explanaton

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that when two same elements form more than a compound, the different masses of one element that combine with the same mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers.

Oxide A

3.50g of sulphur combined with 6.00g of oxygen

Oxygen:Sulphur = 6 : 3.5

Oxide B

2.80g of sulphur combined with 9.55g

Oxygen : Sulphur = 9.55 : 2.8

Therefore:

The ratio of Oxygen to Sulphur in Oxides A and B is:

$\dfrac{\text{Oxygen}}{\text{Sulphur}} \implies \dfrac{6}{3.5}:\dfrac{9.55}{2.8} = \dfrac{1.7}{1}:\dfrac{3.4}{1}=1:2$
