the answer is false at lest that is what i know
Correct answer: has a completely filled outermost shell
Atoms of the element with complete outermost shells are stable. So, in order to attain stability the atom either loses electrons or gains electrons to completely fill the outermost shell. The stable electronic configuration for the s and p-block elements is exhibited by the noble gases or the group 8 elements. All the unstable atoms try to attain the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas with completely filled outermost shell.
The ch4 molecule exhibits hydrogen bonding.
This statement is false. A CH4 molecule do not have a hydrogen bonding instead it has dipole dipole attraction.
Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to an N, O, or F atom.
This would be a true statement. A hydrogen bond is present when an atom of hydrogen shares electrons with O, N or F atom.
A hydrogen bond is equivalent to a covalent bond.
This is a false statement. A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular force of attraction while covalent bond is a intramolecular force. So, they would mean different things.
a hydrogen bond is possible with only certain hydrogen-containing compounds.
This would be true. Without the presence of an hydrogen atom definitely there would be no hydrogen bond.
a hydrogen atom acquires a partial positive charge when it is covalently bonded to an f atom.
This would be true since a HF is a polar molecule.
The hydrophobic effect is caused by nonpolar molecules clumping together. Large macromolecules can have hydrophobic sections, which will fold the molecule so they can be close to each other, away from water. Many amino acids in proteins are hydrophobic, helping the proteins obtain their complicated shapes. The hydrophobic effect extends to organisms, as many hydrophobic molecules on the surface of an organisms help them regulate the amount of water and nutrients in their systems.
Because when equilibrium is reached, the reaction is still occurring in both directions, it's just that rate(forward) =rate(reverse) so there is no net change in the concentrations of the reactants or products.
