Why do the two electrons spend their time equally between both hydrogen atoms? In other words, why can’t one hydrogen just take

the other’s electron?

Because it is a covalent bond meaning that they share the electrons to achieve full valence.

Why was Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment so important?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Answer is 'B' I think

Explanation:

Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment proved the existence of a small massive center to atoms, which would later be known as the nucleus of an atom. Through previous experiments of shooting alpha particles, Rutherford knew they had considerable mass and speed.

calculate δg o for each reaction using δg o f values: (a) h2(g) i2(s) → 2hi(g) 2.6 kj (b) mno2(s) 2co(g) → mn(s) 2co2(g) kj (c)
Reika [66]

(a)The change in Gibbs free energy for the reaction has been 2.6 kJ/mol.

(b) The change in Gibbs free energy for the reaction has been -49.3 kJ/mol.

(c) The change in Gibbs free energy for the reaction has been 91.38 kJ/mol.

Draw the Lewis structure for methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) in the box below. Then predict which would have the higher boiling
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Ethane would have a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have <u>8 electrons</u> (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have <u>4 valence electrons</u>, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.

Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an <u>additional carbon</u>. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have <u>more area of interaction</u> for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give <u>more energy</u> to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.

I hope it helps!
