Covalent bonding occurs when electrons are shared between atoms. Double and triple covalent bonds occur when four or six electrons are shared between two atoms, and they are indicated in Lewis structures by drawing two or three lines connecting one atom to another.
<span>This example represents the challenge of survival of the fittest. In this situation, the trees have a distinct advantage due to their above average height. This puts them in the best position to gain the resources that they need to survive, most notably, the sun. The smaller plants, however, do not have this advantage, and lose out to the trees.</span>
Carbon has 4 valence electrons so to gain a noble gas electron configuration, which has 8 valence electrons and is the most electrically stable, carbon needs 4 more electrons.
Answer:
A. Cu^+2(aq)cathode ---> Cu^+2(aq)anode
Explanation:
Electrolysis is the process in which current is passed through a solution thereby causing a chemical change at the anode and cathode. Copper is being purified using electrolysis by using impure copper at the anode and pure copper at the cathode. This pure and impure copper are placed in a copper(ii)sulfate electrolyte solution and dc current is made to pass through it. The resulting changes at the anode and cathode are given by the equation:
cathode: Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇒ Cu
anode: Cu ⇒ Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻
