A COVALENT BOND, FORMS BETWEEN ELEMENTS WITH SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITY AS SHARING OF ELECTRON PAIRS BETWEEN ATOMS IS EASIER AS THEY ARE IDENTICAL.
Explanation:
Bonding atoms with similar electronegativity values form covalent bonds.
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
Covalent bonds form between two nonmetal atoms with identical or relatively close electronegativity values
Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons, also it is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself.
Pure covalent bonds result when two atoms of the same electronegativity bond. This occurs only when two atoms of the same element bond with each other.
Tests for gases
Hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, ammonia and chlorine can be identified using different tests.
Hydrogen. A lighted wooden splint makes a popping sound in a test tube of hydrogen.
Oxygen. A glowing wooden splint relights in a test tube of oxygen.
245 mm Hg = 32.6634 kPa
<u>Explanation:</u>
When the pressure inside the can is measured in mm Hg and it is needed to convert mm mercury (Hg) to kilo pascal, we have to multiply the pressure in mm Hg with 0.13332, so that the pressure is converted in kilo pascals.
1 mm Hg × 0.13332 = 1 kPa
245 mm Hg × 0.13332 = 32.6634 kPa
So the pressure in mm mercury is converted into kilo pascals.
No. Reactants: 1 silver, 1 chlorine; products: 4 silver, 4 chlorine. Therefore, not balanced.
