How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]3 years ago
4 0
Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons. This sharing allows each atom to achieve its octet of electrons and greater stability. Methane, CH 4<span>, the simplest organic compound, contains covalent bonds. Carbon has four valence electrons, while hydrogen has one valence electron. By sharing these outer‐shell electrons, carbon and hydrogen complete their valence shells and become more stable. The duet of electrons on the hydrogen is isoelectronic with helium and forms a complete shell.</span>

What is the limiting reactant when 20g CH4 react with 15g H20?
Art [367]

Answer:

H₂O.

Explanation:

  • It is clear from the balanced equation:

<em>CH₄ + 2H₂O → CO₂ + 4H₂.</em>

that 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O to produce 1.0 mole of CO₂ and 4.0 moles of H₂.

  • To determine the limiting reactant, we should calculate the no. of moles of (20 g) CH₄ and (15 g) H₂O using the relation:

<em>n = mass/molar mass</em>

<em></em>

no. of moles of CH₄ = mass/molar mass = (20 g)/(16 g/mol) = 1.25 mol.

no. of moles of H₂O = mass/molar mass = (15 g)/(18 g/mol) = 0.833 mol.

  • <em>from the balanced reaction, 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O.</em>

So, from the calculated no. of moles: 0.4167 mole of CH₄ reacts completely with 0.833 mole of H₂O and the remaining of CH₄ will be in excess.

<u><em>So, the limiting reactant is H₂O.</em></u>

ANSWER CORRECTLY PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ann [662]

Answer:

Exothermic.

Explanation:

Exothermic is when he leaves the system. A way to remember is the "ex" which is a prefix/root/suffix or something that pretty much means leaving, I think. For example how it's in "Exodus" and "Exit", I think.

Endothermic is when it goes into the system. Similar to "ex" but with inside, I think. For example how it's in "Endoskeleton", I suppose.
