Answer:
Ionic bonds - an intramolecular force exist in a nonmetal and metal compounds such as NaCl. The Na donate 1 electon to Cl to complete its octet rule.
Covalent bond - an intramolecular force exist in a nonmetal and nonmetal compounds such as bonds O2, Cl2, CO2, sugar, proteins and most of organic compounds and biomolecules by sharing electrons to bond.
There are two types of covalent bonds: polar and nonpolar. Polar bond is a bond between two different nonmetal atoms of different electronegativities. While nonpolar bond is a bond between the same atom or two differenct atoms of the same electronegativities (if there is). Their electronegativities pull will cancel so that their overall polarity is zero.
Answer:
Boron has 3 valence electrons
-They can conduct heat
-They can conduct electricity
-They are typically stronger than non metals
Hope this helps, have a nice day! :)
Answer/Explanation:
No compounds must be made up of two or more elements. otherwise it wouldn't be a compound. There must be some type of combination or it isn't a compound.
Answer:
Copper ions are reduced into copper atoms.
Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ → Cu₍s₎
Explanation:
During electrolysis, the positive H⁺ and Cu⁺ ions move to the negative cathode and negative OH⁻ and Cl⁻ ions move to the positive anode.
At cathode, copper ions are preferentially discharged due to the low electromotive force required to discharge them compared to the hydrogen ion. The copper ions gain the two electrons lost by the chloride ions when the are discharged. (2 Cl⁻₍aq₎ → Cl₂₍g₎ + 2e⁻)
Thus the half equation is as follows:
Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ → Cu₍s₎
