What's the difference between ionic bond and molecular or covalent bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
katen-ka-za [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It's all about understanding the concept, see my explanation.

Explanation:

A ionic bond is formed between a metal element and a non metal element always. On the other hand, a molecular bond or covalent bond is formed between 2 elements which are both non metals. A ionic bond is made when there is a electron transfer occurring meaning that one element is giving it's electron to another to ethier become a postive or negative ion. Whereas a molecular bond is made when two non metals elements share there electrons.

• An example of a ionic bond would be MgCl2 as we know magnesium is a metal and chlorine is a non metal.

• An example of a molecular bond would be NF

which we know are both non metals.

How many atoms are found in a 15.5 g sample of bismuth?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

4.47 x 10²² atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Bismuth  = 15.5g

Unknown:

Number of atoms  = ?

Solution:

To find the number atoms, first solve for the number of moles in this element first.

  Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}    

  Number of moles  = \frac{15.5}{209}    = 0.074mole

So:

        1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

     0.074 mole of Bismuth will contain 0.074 x 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

                                                          = 4.47 x 10²² atoms

The mole fraction of CO2 in a certain solution with H2O as the solvent is 3.6 × 10−4. What is the approximate molality of CO2 in
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: C) 0.020 m

Explanation:

Molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per kg of the solvent.

Molality=\frac{n\times 1000}{W_s}

where,

n = moles of solute  

W_s = weight of solvent in g  

Mole fraction of CO_2 is = 3.6\times 10^{-4} i.e.3.6\times 10^{-4}  moles of CO_2 is present in 1 mole of solution.

Moles of solute (CO_2) = 3.6\times 10^{-4}

moles of solvent (water) = 1 - 3.6\times 10^{-4} = 0.99

weight of solvent =moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.99\times 18=17.82g

Molality =\frac{3.6\times 10^{-4}\times 1000}{17.82g}=0.020

Thus  approximate molality of CO_2 in this solution is 0.020 m

Why was it significant that amino acids were produced from a mixture of methane gas, hydrogen gas, ammonia, and water vapor?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

It was significant because thanks to Miller's experiment, it was possible to test many years later and with modern techniques, the progress of the evolution of life on Earth.

Explanation:

In Miller's experiment, he subjected a mixture of methane, ammonia, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water to strong electric shocks and high temperatures. He noted that organic molecules such as glucose, amino acids such as glycine, alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid were formed. Subsequently, in 2008 other scientists analyzed these compounds using more sensitive devices. Their analyzes found the formation of 20 amino acids (proteins) and 6 components found in the nucleus of the cells, thus checking the progress of the evolution of life on Earth.
