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>

Calculate the percent by mass of 4.35g of Na I dissolved in 105g of water​
Ludmilka [50]

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of Na added = 4.35 grams

Mass of water = 105 grams

<u>Mass Percent of Na:</u>

Total mass of the solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

Total mass of the solution = 4.35 + 105 = 109.35 grams

Mass percent of solute = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100

Mass percent of Solute = (4.35 / 109.35) * 100

Mass percent = 3.978 %

You measure salt water in a tank to have a density of 1.02 g/mL. A balloon weighs 2.0 g and you weights have a mass of 30.0 g ea
Elden [556K]

Weight of the balloon = 2.0 g

Six weights each of mass 30.0 g is added to the balloon.

Total mass of the balloon = 2.0 g + 6*30.0 g = 182 g

Density of salt water = 1.02 g/mL

Calculating the volume from mass and density:

182g*\frac{mL}{1.02g} =178mL

Converting the volume from mL to cubic cm:

178 mL * \frac{1cm^{3} }{1mL} =178cm^{3}

Assuming the balloon to be a sphere,

Volume of the sphere = \frac{4}{3}πr^{3}

178 cm^{3} = \frac{4}{3}(\frac{22}{7})r^{3}

r = 3.49 cm

Radius of the balloon = 3.49 cm

Diameter of the balloon = 2 r = 2*3.49 cm = 6.98cm

If the half-life of a radioisotope is 10,000 years, the amount remaining after 20,000 years is
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Considering the half-life of 10,000 years, after 20,000 years we will have a fourth of the remaining amount.

Explanation:

The half-time is the time a radioisotope takes to decay and lose half of its mass. Therefore, we can make the following scheme to know the amount remaining after a period of time:

Time_________________ Amount

t=0_____________________x

t=10,000 years____________x/2

t=20,000 years___________x/4

During the first 10,000 years the radioisotope lost half of its mass. After 10,000 years more (which means 2 half-lives), the remaining amount also lost half of its mass. Therefore, after 20,000 years, the we will have a fourth of the initial amount.
