How does the electro negativity difference between atoms determine the type of bond they will form

Chemistry
1 answer:
siniylev [52]3 years ago
4 0

The absolute value of the difference in electronegativity (ΔEN) of two bonded atoms provides a rough measure of the polarity to be expected in the bond and, thus, the bond type. When the difference is very small or zero, the bond is covalent and nonpolar. When it is large, the bond is polar covalent or ionic.

Which of the following takes place during a redox reaction? A. Electrons are gained only. B. Electrons are lost only. C. Electro
zhannawk [14.2K]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Electrons are both gained and <span>lost during a redox reaction. From the name itself "redox" or reduction-oxidation, it must be that something has reduced and another has gained that something.</span>

Select the correct answer. which substance in this redox reaction is the oxidizing agent? cu 2agno3 → 2ag cu(no3)2 a. n b. agno3
lana66690 [7]

AgNO₃ will act as the oxidising agent.

<h3><u>For the given chemical equation:</u></h3>

Cu + 2AgNO₃ →  2Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂

Half reactions for the given chemical reaction:

<u>Reducing agent:</u>

Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻

Copper is a reducing agent because it is losing 2 electrons, which causes an oxidation process.

<u>Oxidising Agent</u>:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag

The silver ion undergoes a reduction process and is regarded as an oxidizing agent since it is acquiring one electron per atom.

Hence, AgNO₃ is considered as an oxidizing agent and therefore the correct answer is Option B.

<h3><u>Oxidising and Reducing agents</u></h3>
  • An oxidizing agent is a substance that reduces itself after oxidizing another material. It passes through a reduction process in which it obtains electrons and the substance's oxidation state is decreased.
  • A reducing agent is a chemical that oxidizes after reducing another material. It passes through an oxidation process in which it loses electrons and the substance's oxidation state increases.

Gold atoms can be identified based on the number of which subatomic particles?
sp2606 [1]

Answer: A

Explanation:

A Gold (Au) atom has 79 protons and 79 electrons. A typical gold atom has 118 neutrons, though there are 18 other radioisotopes discovered so far. 79 is its charge (atomic number), which is both its proton number and electron number
