Answer:

B) Covalent bonds are typical of carbon compounds.

Explanation:

Covalent bonds -

It is the type of bonding , the electrons are shared between the respective atoms , and thereby stabilizing both the atoms via bond formation .

This type of bonding is also called molecular bonding .

In the field of organic chemistry , covalent bonding is very commonly seen .

Hence , carbon due to its properties of catenation and tetravalency forms very stable and strong covalent bonding with other atoms of carbon and other atoms like , nitrogen , oxygen , chlorine etc .

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared between the atoms. These are formed when two non-metals combine together. They do not dissolve in water and does not allow conduction of electricity.

An ionic bond is formed when complete transfer of electrons takes place from one atom to another atom. Atom which donates electrons is known as electropositive atom and the atom which accepts electrons is known as electronegative atom. These are formed by non-metals and metals. When dissolved in water, it breaks into ions and thus conduct electricity.

Covalent bonds are usually found in carbon compounds.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B.

Which of the following is NOT a good technique for managing used oil? A) Have specific, labeled catch pans available for technic
slava [35]

The answer is: B) Spills in your shop and any releases on pavement or outside should be poured down a drain.

Pouring used oil down a drain can cause damege to environment.

Oil is nonpolar substance and does not dissolve in the water (polar molecule), used oil remain existent in the drain and sewer or in the environment.

Small spills create a cumulative effect with  significant impact on the  environment.

Untended spills inside  a shop can spread to an inside  drain connected to the storm  sewer system and cause floods.

Determine the mass of 2.5 cups of water if the density of water is 1.00 g/cm3 and 1 cup = 240 ml. i
Radda [10]

The mass is simply the product of volume and density. But first, let us convert the volume into cm^3 (cm^3 = mL):

volume = 2.5 cups * (240 mL/cup)

volume = 600 mL = 600cm^3

 

So the mass is:

mass = 600 cm^3 * (1 g / cm^3)

<span>mass = 600g</span>
