Explanation:
A covalent bond is defined as the occurrence of a bond due to the sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.
Atomic number of hydrogen atom is 1 and its electronic configuration is
. So, in order to complete its octet it needs to gain or mutually shares one electron.
A covalent bond is generally formed between non-metal atoms.
Thus, we can conclude that hydrogen has only one electron that will be involved in the formation of a covalent bond.
Answer:
β-hydroxyaldehyde (an aldol) namely 3-Hydroxy butanal.
Explanation:
When acetaldehyde is treated with dil.NaOH it undergoes self condensation as it contains alpha-hydrogen atom in its compound forming β-hydroxyaldehyde (an aldol) namely 3-Hydroxy butanal. This compound upon further heating will eliminate a molecule of water forming aldol condensation product namely Crotonaldehyde Or But-2-en-al. see the diagram attached.
We are going to use Avogadro's constant to calculate how many molecules of
carbons dioxide exist in lungs:
when 1 mole of CO2 has 6.02 x 10^23 molecules, so how many molecules in
CO2 when the number of moles is 5 x 10^-2
number of molecules = moles of CO2 * Avogadro's number
= 5 x 10^-2 * 6.02 x 10^23
= 3 x 10^22 molecules
∴ There are 3 x 10^22 molecules in CO2 exist in lungs
