Answer:
A covalent chemical bond is one in which <u>outer-shell electrons of two atoms are shared so as to satisfactorily fill their respective orbitals</u>.
Explanation:
Covalent bonds are formed between two atoms having their electronegativity difference less than 1.7. In this type of bonding the valence electrons of one atoms forms molecular bond with the valence electrons of another atom. The electrons are mutually shared.
Covalent bond can be non-polar as for example formed between hydrogen and carbon atoms.
Also, covalent bond can be polar in nature as that formed between hydrogen and chlorine atoms because the chlorine atom is more electronegative and hence attracts the electrons more towards itself making density of electrons less on hydrogen atom.
the density increases down the group.
Answer:
Number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Total number of ions = 1.49 × 10²³ + 1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.
Explanation:
1 mole of any compound contains 6.023 × 10²³ molecules.
molecular weight of NaCl is 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g.
so, 58.5 grams of NaCl makes 1 mole
⇒ 14.5 g of NaCl = 
= 0.248 moles.
⇒ 0.248 mole contains 0.248 × 6.023×10²³ molecules
= 1.49 × 10²³ molecules.
And 1 molecule contains 1 Na ion and 1 Cl ion.
⇒ number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
⇒ number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Total number of ions = 1.49 × 10²³ + 1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.
Answer:
Atoms come together to form molecules because of their electrons. Electrons can join (or bond) atoms together in two main ways. When two atoms share electrons between them, they are locked together (bonded) by that sharing. These are called covalent bonds
