which group of the periodic table has elements with atoms that tend not to bond with other atoms of other elements

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together

Leona [35]

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together are weak and do not require much energy to break:- False.

What are covalent bonds ?

An electron transfer that leads to the formation of electron pairs between atoms is known as a covalent bond. When atoms share electrons, a stable balance of the repulsive and attractive forces among them is known as covalent bonding. These electron pairs are also known as bonds or shared pairs.

It is a molecular compound, which is a mixture of at least two atoms—the smallest building blocks of matter—joined by a covalent bond. These atoms are joined by a covalent bond, which is formed when electrons are shared.

Using the following reaction:

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Mn is the oxidizing agent.

N is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the undergoing chemical reaction, it is seen that the manganese in KMnO4 has an oxidation state of 7+, in MnSO4 of 2+ and nitrogen in KNO2 is 3+ and in KNO3 is 5+; thus we have the following half-reactions:

$Mn^{7+}+5e^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}\\\\N^{3+}\rightarrow N^{5+}+2e^-$

Thus, since manganese is undergoing a decrease in the oxidation state, we infer it is the oxidizing agent whereas nitrogen, undergoing an increase in the oxidation state is the reducing agent.

Best regards!

A shopkeeper has a few bottles of soft drinks in his shop.But,these are not labelled.He has to serve the drinks on the demand on

zepelin [54]

Answer:

He will decide which drink is to be served to whom, by the use of litmus paper.

Explanation:

The litmus paper is the most common indicator to determine the acidity or basicity of a solution. Blue litmus paper changes its color to red when a solution changes from basic to acidic while red litmus paper changes its color to blue when the opposite occurs (acid → basic).

First of all the litmus paper strip, pH indicator, is immersed in a solution and allowed to pass between 10 and 15 seconds while keeping the strip submerged. Afterwards it is removed, and then the strip compares the color. If the color is diffuse, there is a color scale where it is determined which solution has alkaline or acidic pH
