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.

The amine here is the easiest to spot since there’s only one structure that has a nitrogen atom, which would be the first (the first structure is a primary amine).

The distinguishing functional group of an alcohol is the hydroxy group (—OH). Both the second and third structures have an —OH group, but the —OH in the third structure is part of a carboxyl group (—COOH or —C(=O)OH). A carboxyl group takes priority over hydroxy group. Thus, the second structure would be an alcohol and the third structure would be a carboxylic acid.

That leaves us with the fourth structure, a hydrocarbon with a halogen substitutent, or, aptly named, a halocarbon.

Sodium fluoride reacts with hydroxyapatite to give fluorapatite according to the chemical reaction:
tatyana61 [14]
We are given the balanced equation 2NaF + Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 → Ca10(PO4)6F2 + 2NaOH. The fluorapatite is the product together with sodium hydroxide. The ions involved are (PO4) 3-, Ca 2+ and <span>F-. We add the charges and check if the sum is zero, 2*10+-3*6+-1*2 =0. the zero sum tells that the compound has zero charge or neutral</span>

If kb for nx3 is 4.0×10−6, what is the poh of a 0.175 m aqueous solution of nx3?
Elena-2011 [213]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

pOH = 3.08

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

NX3 + H2O <----> NHX3+ + OH-  

Kb = 4.0 x 10^-6

Kb = c(NH₄⁺) · c(OH⁻) ÷ c(NH₃).

c(NH₄⁺) = c(OH⁻) = x.

x² = Kb · c(NH₃)

x² = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ × 0.175 = 7.0 × 10⁻⁷.

x = c(OH⁻) = √(7.0 × 10⁻⁷)

    = 8.367 × 10⁻⁴

pOH = -log(c(OH⁻))

        =- log ( 8.367 × 10⁻⁴)

        <u>= 3.08</u>
