It is softer than topaz and and it is softer than diamond (diamond has a Mohs hardness of 10, which is the highest value of the scale)
Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability
Water has a chemical formula of H2O. This means that for every 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen, one mole of water will be formed.
Note that hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are both biatomic molecules.
(1) (182 mol H2) x (1 mol H2O/ 1 mol H2) = 182 mol H2O
(2) (86 mol O2) x (2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2) = 172 mol H2O
We choose the smaller number of the two as the answer to this item. Thus, the answer to this question is 172 mol of H2O can be formed out of the given quantities.
Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, or between two atoms with sharply different electronegativities, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds
