Answer:

The  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two protons, r = 4 x 10⁻¹⁵ m

charge of a proton, q = + 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is calculated by applying Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k q_1 q_2 }{r^2} \\\\where;\\k \ is \ Coulomb's \ constant = 9\times 10^9 \ Nm^2/C^2 \\\\F = \frac{9\times 10^9 \  (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{(4 \times 10^{-15})^2} \\\\F = 14.4 \ N

Therefore, the  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

givi [52]

Answer:A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
