<em>Answer: </em>D
<em>Explanation:</em>
chemical formula of methane: CH4
electron configuration of C: 2,4
electron configuration of H: 1
there are 4 hydrogen atoms that donated 1 electron each to C
therefore it's D.
Answer:
A)Chlorine and Bromine:
They are both non metal hence they form a covalent bond due to covalent bonding.
B)Potassium and Helium:
Helium ion has a small cationic radius and distorted by the potassium ion due to polarization.
C)Sodium and Lithium:
Both are metals hence they form a metallic bond since they share electrons to the electron cloud.
Answer:
B.Lone pair in pyrrolidine ring is localized and, therefore, is expected to be more reactive.
Explanation:
There are two nitrogen atoms bearing lone pairs of electrons in the structure of nicotine as shown in the image attached.
One nitrogen atom is found in the pyrrolidine ring. The lone pair on this nitrogen atom is localized hence it is more reactive than the lone pair of electrons found on the nitrogen atom in the pyridine ring which is delocalized a shown in the image attached to this answer.
Deforestation- there are no more homes for some animals and insects after a forest is cut down.
desertification- when deserts get larger it destroys other ecosystems.
