When do some atoms in covalent bonds become slightly negative or slightly positive

Chemistry
1 answer:
s2008m [1.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A covalent bond is the force of attraction that holds together two atoms that share a pair of electrons. It forms between atoms of the same or different nonmetals. In polar covalent bonds, one atom attracts the shared electrons more strongly and becomes slightly negative. The other atom becomes slightly positive

What causes gas particles to collide with the walls of their containers?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

Complete and balance each of the following equations for gas evolution reactions HCl(aq)+ZnS(s)>
DENIUS [597]

2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:  

  • 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.  
  • 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product  
  • 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1  

Reaction

HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

1. give equation

aHCl(aq) + bZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + cH₂S(g)

2. make an equation

H, left=a, right=2c⇒a=2c(eq 1)

Cl, left=a, right=2⇒a=2⇒c=1(from eq 1)

Zn, left=b, right=1⇒b=1

So the equation :

2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

What really is the Ebola virus?
Sloan [31]
The Ebola virus belongs to a family of viruses termed Filoviridae. Filovirus particles form long sometimes branched filaments of varying shapes, as well as shorter filaments , and may measure up to 14,000 nanometers in length with diameter of 80 nanometers. Viral particles contain one molecule of single stranded RNA enveloped in a lipid membrane. New viral particle bud from the surface of their host cell. Although Ebola virus was only discovered in 1976, it is an ancient virus and is thought to have split from other viruses thousands of years ago.

Which is the Lewis structure for H3PO4?
Fed [463]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • The correct structure of phosphoric acid is A.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • P should form five covalent bonds. In this strcuture P form three single bond with 3-hydroxyl groups while one single bondformed with oxygen. As oxygen will form two bonds , it carry negative charge, while P should form five bond but here it is forming 4 bonds due to this P has positive charge but overall structure contain neutral charge due to cancellation of positive and negative charges. Beside this, there are 3 H,  Four O and One P according to formula H3PO4.
