The compounds that have covalent bonding as their dominant bonding scheme are diamond and silica.

A covalent bond is formed between two nonmetals. Usually, when two nonmetals combine, electrons are shared between the two atoms involved in the bond.

Now, the solids diamond and silica are predominantly covalent solids. The atoms that combine in diamond are carbon atoms(nonmetals) while the atoms that combine in silica are silicon and oxygen (nonmetals also)

Hence, diamond and silica both have covalent bonding as their dominant bonding scheme.

A gas has an initial volume of 455 mL at 105ºC and a final volume of 235 mL. What is its final temperature in Celsius degrees?
Oksana_A [137]
Hello!

To solve this problem we're going to use the Charles' Law. This Law describes the relationship between Volume and Temperature in an ideal gas. Applying this law we have the following equation:

\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2} \\  \\ T2= \frac{V2*T1}{V1}=  \frac{235 mL * 105  ^{\circ}C }{455 mL}=54,23 ^{\circ}C

So, the final temperature is 54,23 °C

Have a nice day!

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.  

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³  → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so <u>each atom has an octet of electrons.</u>

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹  → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, <em><u>we can not find an octet.</u></em>

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴  → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, <u>each oxygen atom has an octet</u>.      

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵  → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, <u>each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around</u>.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!
