What types of atoms typically form covalent bonds?
The correct answer:
d) Nonmetals with nonmetals, because their difference in electronegativity is below 1.7.
En example to explain:
An example of a covalent bonding: HCl -> 2 nonmentals
-> a difference in electronegativity less than 1.7:
EN(Cl) = 3.0 and EN (H) = 2.1 (you can search these values in a periodic table)
/\EN = 3.0 - 2.1 = 0.9
0.9 < 1.7

The chemical equation needs to be balanced so that it follows the law of conservation of mass.
Answer:The green growing on the penny of copper and the rust forming on the nail of iron are chemical changes. Boiling away salt water, scraping iron filings from a mixture of sand with a magnet, and breaking a rock with a hammer, are physical changes.
Explanation:
Glucose and oxygen are changed into energy and carbon dioxide during cellular respiration and that’s how carbon dioxide is released in the air.
