Why do atmospheric carbon dioxide levels fluctuate during the year?

Chemistry

Answer: The amount of CO2 found in the atmosphere varies over the course of a year. Much of this variation happens because of the role of plants in the carbon cycle

What type of bond would be formed between nitrogen (N) and nitrogen (N)? Why?
Vikki [24]

Answer: The compound formed between nitrogen (N) and nitrogen (N) a polar covalent bond because there is less than a 0.4 difference in electronegativity between the atoms.

Explanation:

If electronegativity difference between two atoms is less than 0.4 then bond formed is a pure covalent bond.

If electronegativity difference between two atoms is between 0.4 to 1.8 then bond formed is a polar covalent bond.

If electronegativity difference between two atoms is greater than 1.8 then bond formed is an ionic bond.

The electronegativity value of a nitrogen atom is 3.04. Hence, the electronegativity difference of N_{2} molecule is as follows.

Electronegativity difference = electronegativity value of N - electronegativity value of N\\= 3.04 - 3.04\\= 0As the electronegativity difference is 0 which is less than 0.4.

Hence, we can conclude that the compound formed between nitrogen (N) and nitrogen (N) a polar covalent bond because there is less than a 0.4 difference in electronegativity between the atoms.

Arrange the following molecules in order of decreasing polarity of their bonds.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

SF2 > H2O > PBr3 > NCl3

Explanation:

Compare the electronegativity values for the atoms and classify the nature of the bonding based on the electronegativity difference.

P has an electronegativity of 2.1, while Br has an electronegativity of 2.96. The difference is 0.86, indicating that these atoms will form covalent bonds.

S has an electronegativity of 2.58 while F has an electronegativity of 4.0. The difference is 1.42, indicating that these atoms will form polar covalent bonds.

O has an electronegativity of 3.5 while H has an electronegativity of 2.1. The difference is 1.4, indicating that these atoms will form polar covalent bonds.

N has an electronegativity of 3.04, whereas Cl has an electronegativity of 3.5. This difference of 0.46 indicates that these atoms will form covalent bonds.

We know that the greater the electronegativity, the higher the polarity. In decreasing order of polarity, we have:

SF2 > H2O > PBr3 > NCl3

Compare the 3 types of bonds based on what happens to the valence electrons of the atoms
uysha [10]
In ionic bonds, one atom gives one or more electrons to another atom so both can get closer to 8 valence electrons.  Example:  In potassium chloride (KCl), Potassium gives up one valence electron to chlorine, so that the outer shell of potassium has 8 valence electrons.  This happens only between metals and nonmetals.

In covalent bonds, atoms share their electrons to reach 8 valence electrons.  Example: In water (H2O), Oxygen shares one valence electron with one atom of hydrogen, and another valence electron with another atom of hydrogen.  Oxygen now has 8 (4 unshared + 2 of its own + 1 from hydrogen + 1 from hydrogen), and each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons: one of its own and one from oxygen [ note that hydrogen only needs 2 valence electrons to be complete instead of 8].

In metallic bonds between metals, the valence electrons move much more freely than in other bonds.  This free characteristic makes metals how they are: ductile, malleable, sectile, conductive, etc.
