How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding?

Chemistry

Zolol [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Atoms must have similar electronegativities in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is one of the bondings that occurs between the atoms of elements. It is the bonding in which atoms share their valence electrons with one another. However, the ELECTRONEGATIVITY, which is the ability of an atom to be attracted to electrons play a major role in the formation of covalent bonds.

When atoms of different electronegativities combine, the more electronegative atom pulls more electrons towards itself, hence, an IONIC bond is formed. However, when the electronegativities of the atoms are similar, the sharing of their electrons becomes stronger. Hence, ATOMS MUST HAVE SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITIES in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.

The ion [Co(NH3)6]2+
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Explanation:

The answer would be  B.

As paramagnetic with 3 unpaired electrons. Since there are 6 ligands around the Co+2 ion it isoctahedral and these ligands are neutral. This makes the overall charge on the complex +2 and therefore comes from the configuration for Co+2 which is [Ar] 3d7. Since it is in high spin you must fill all the orbitals with at least one electron and then pair up any that remain. If you do this, 3 unpaired electrons remain. Para magnetism occurs in substances with unpaired electrons.

Draw the structure of the product of each step in the following three-step synthesis. Show the formal charges, if applicable. As
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Second step: 4-bromo-1-methyl-2-nitrobenzene.

Third step: 1.5-dibromo-2-methyl-3-nitrobenzene.

Explanation:

To solve this exercise I will use the concepts of electrophilic substitution. In these reactions, a functional group is displaced by an electrophile. In the attached image are the two main products.

Please tell me an example of a protein structure that would give positive test with Molisch’s Reagent?
Andru [333]

Answer:

positive reaction for Molisch's test is given by almost all carbohydrates (exceptions include tetroses & trioses). It can be noted that even some glycoproteins and nucleic acids give positive results for this test (since they tend to undergo hydrolysis when exposed to strong mineral acids and form monosaccharides).
