What types of atoms typically form covalent bonds?
The correct answer:
d) Nonmetals with nonmetals, because their difference in electronegativity is below 1.7.
En example to explain:
An example of a covalent bonding: HCl -> 2 nonmentals
-> a difference in electronegativity less than 1.7:
EN(Cl) = 3.0 and EN (H) = 2.1 (you can search these values in a periodic table)
/\EN = 3.0 - 2.1 = 0.9
0.9 < 1.7

The correct option is C.
An atom can be either in the ground state or in an excited state. An atom is said to be in the ground state, if the total energy of its electron can not be lowered by moving one or more electrons into different orbitals. At the ground state, the electrons in the atom have the lowest energy possible and they are stable. On the other hand, an atom is said to be in an excited state, if the energy of its electrons can be lowered by transferring one or more electrons into different orbitals. An atom in an excited state has more energy and is less stable.
Answer:
Under the earth's surface, rocks melt, metamorphize, and crystalize.
Explanation:
Metamorphic and Igneous rocks are basically dependant on the heat/pressure of the environment under the surface :) Melting, metamorphosing and crystallization all occur under earth's surface.
This chemical reaction can also be written as
2C2H6+7O2-->4CO2+6H2O
This is a chemical reaction because reactants are converted into products. This is the combustion of ethane where ethane and oxygen have been converted into carbon dioxide and water
Answer:
A delta is formed when the river deposits its material faster than the sea can remove it. ... Cuspate - the land around the mouth of the river juts out arrow-like into the sea. The Ebro Delta. Bird's foot - the river splits on the way to the sea, each part of the river juts out into the sea, rather like a bird's foot.
