This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
In this item, I supposed, that we are determine the molar fraction of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the sample. This can be done by dividing their respective partial pressures by the total pressure of the sample.
O2 : mole fraction = (100.7 mmHg) / (763.00 mmHg) = 0.13
CO2 : mole fraction = (33.57 mmHg) / (763.00 mmHg) = 0.044
Answers: O2 = 0.13
CO2 = 0.044
Answer:
C. It is hard to recreate the extremely high temperatures and pressures found inside stars.
Explanation:
Nuclear fusion occurs when atomic nuclei are forcefully combined to create a new atomic nuclei or subatomic particles. In nature, this process takes place in our Sun and other stars. Within stars, extremely high temperatures and pressures are achieved and cause nuclear fusion to occur. Humans have not yet been successful in recreating the environment necessary to mimic this process.
Ionic bonds usually occur between metal and nonmetal ions. For example, sodium (Na), a metal, and chloride (Cl), a nonmetal, form an ionic bond to make NaCl. In a covalent bond, the atoms bond by sharing electrons. Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals.
