Answer:
The molecular formula of a compound represents molecular mass of the substance. For example, the molecular mass of water molecule (H2O) is 18u.
(iv) The molecular formula of any compound gives the name, and actual number of atoms of each kind present in one molecule of the substance. For example, the formula for water is H2O. This means that every molecule of water is made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
Answer:Increasing the temperature increases reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.
Explanation:
Answer:
C. involve the attraction of opposite charges
Explanation:
<em>Ionic bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>oppositely charged ions</em>, as in Na⁺ Cl⁻.
<em>Covalent bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>negatively charged electrons and positivey charged nuclei</em>, as in a C-H bond.
A is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.
B is <em>wrong</em>. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.
D is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonds are usually stronger than covalent bonds.
