<h3>Balanced equation :
2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that have single bonds in chains
General formula for alkanes :
Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (specifically alkanes)
So that the burning of ethane with air (oxygen):
2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)
or we can use mathematical equations to solve equilibrium chemical equations by giving the coefficients for each compound involved in the reaction
C₂H₆ (g) + aO₂ (g) ⟶ bCO₂ (g) + cH₂O (ℓ)
C : left 2, right b ⇒ b=2
H: left 6, right 2c⇒ 2c=6⇒ c= 3
O : left 2a, right 2b+c⇒ 2a=2b+c⇒2a=2.2+3⇒2a=7⇒a=7/2
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, because the dissociated ions can carry charge through the solution. Molecular compounds don't dissociate into ions and so don't conduct electricity in solution. Electrical conductivity of the compound in liquid form
Answer:
So A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.
Explanation:
words to know: covalent bond, electronegativities, and simultaneously
Covalent Bond: A chemical bond formed when electrons are shared between two atoms. Usually each atom contributes one electron to form a pair of electrons that are shared by both atoms.
Electronegativities: the degree to which an element tends to gain electrons and form negative ions in chemical reactions.
Simultaneously: at the same time.
hope this helps!
Explanation:
A column on the periodic table represents a period.
These are some of the variations observed across a period;
- Atomic radii decreases progressively from left to right due to the progressive increase in the nuclear charge without an attendant increase in the number of electronic shells.
- Ionization energy increases progressively from left to right due to decreasing atomic radii.
- Electronegativity increases from left to right.
- Electropositivity decreases across a period.
