Describe a covalent bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natasha2012 [34]3 years ago
7 0
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

A sample of neon gas in a bulb is at 149.05 °C and 349.84 kPa. If the pressure drops
KonstantinChe [14]

The new temperature (in °C) of the gas, given the data is –148.20 °C

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Initial temperature (T₁) = 149.05 °C = 149.05 + 273 = 422.05 K
  • Initial pressure (P₁) = 349.84 KPa
  • Volume = constant
  • New pressure (P₂) = 103.45 KPa
  • New temperature (T₂) =?

<h3>How to determine the new temperature </h3>

The new temperature of the gas can be obtained by using the combined gas equation as illustrated below:

P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

Since the volume is constant, we have:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

349.84 / 422.05 = 103.45 / T₂

Cross multiply

349.84 × T₂ = 103.45 × 422.05

Divide both side by 349.84

T₂ = (103.45 × 422.05) / 349.84

T₂ = 124.80 K

Subtract 273 from 124.80 K to express in degree celsius

T₂ = 124.80 – 273

T₂ = –148.20 °C

two substances react and the mass is recorded.The mass of the products does not equal the mass of the reactants .Which is the be
Dovator [93]
Mass can’t be destroyed. So since not all the mass was found in the products, that simply means that it was lost to the environment. For example, let’s say hydrogen and oxygen are the reactants and we get water in the product. Now that oxygen could have reacted with something else that we didn’t take into account when measuring the mass of the H2O released.

Tldr, some of the reactants were lost to the surroundings

The force between two atoms is the result of _____________________ repulsion, nucleus-nucleus ________________, and nucleus-elec
Elanso [62]

Answer:

<h2>(1). electron electron repulsion</h2><h2>(2). repulsion </h2><h2>(3). attraction </h2><h2>(4). maximum attraction  </h2><h2>(5). attractive </h2><h2>(6). repulsive </h2><h2>(7). maximum attraction </h2><h2>(8). molecule </h2>

Explanation:

The same charges repel each other while opposite charges attract each other. During electron-electron interaction repulsion take palace because the electron has negative charges. Nucleus has positive charges so the interaction between two nucleus results in the form of repulsion. When interaction takes place between nucleus and electron then attraction takes place between nucleus and electrons due to opposite charges.

          The formation of a bond that takes place due to the sharing of the electrons is known as a covalent bond and thus the covalent molecule is formed.

Identify the intermolecular forces present in each of these substances nh3 hcl co co2
nasty-shy [4]
Intermolecular forces are forces of interaction that are operative between two different molecules. They are of follow types
1) Dipole- dipole interaction
2) Hydrogen bonds
3) vander Waal's forces

Depending upon the polarity and constitution molecule above forces are operable.

for instance, in case of ammonia, Hydrogen bonds exist because hydrogen atom is attached to electronegative element i.e. N

HCl and CO are polar molecules, so dipole-dipole interaction is operative in these molecules.

Finally in case of CO2, vander Waal's forces of interaction is operable because it is a non-polar molecule.

Advocard [28]
Calcium chloride forms an ionic compound with a regularly arranged lattice of oppositely charged ions.

The Na+ and Cl- ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces.
