Shameeka is studying for an exam. She took the notes below about calcium and chlorine, which are known to form ionic bonds. Calc

ium, which is a metal, donates 2 electrons to chlorine. The individual calcium atoms become ions with a negative 2 charge. The bond between calcium and chlorine makes the atoms stable. Calcium and chlorine attract each other. Which best describes Shameeka’s error? ive got 2 hours so you dont need to rush

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.  

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³  → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so <u>each atom has an octet of electrons.</u>

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹  → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, <em><u>we can not find an octet.</u></em>

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴  → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, <u>each oxygen atom has an octet</u>.      

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵  → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, <u>each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around</u>.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!

What is the net charge of the ionic compound calcium fluoride
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

  • <em>The net charge of the ionic compound calcium fluoride is </em><u><em>zero (0).</em></u>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>Ionic compounds,</em> such as covalent ones, have zero net charge; this is, they are neutral.

Substances with net positive charge are cations and substances with net negative charge are anions.

The charges in the <em>ionic compound calcium flouride</em> are distributed in this way:

  • Compound formula: CaF₂

  • Calcium charge: Ca²⁺: this is, each calcium ion has a 2 positive charge

  • Fluoride charge: F⁻: each fluoride ion has a 1 negative charge.

  • Then, the <em>net charge</em> is: 1 × (2+) + 2 × (1-) = +2 - 2 = 0.

So, a two positve charge, from one calcium ion, is equal to two negative charges, from two fluoride tions, yielding a <u>zero net charge</u>.
