Explain why Cl2 can form two different Na bonds

Chemistry
1 answer:
I am Lyosha [343]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: There is a single covalent bond in a chlorine molecule.

Explanation: The chlorine molecule is represented as Cl−Cl, i.e. C

l2. Between the chlorine atoms, 2 electrons overlap to form a region of high electron density to which the positively charged chlorine nuclei are attracted, such that internuclear repulsion is negated and a net attractive force results. Because the bonding electrons are shared between the nuclei, we conceive that each atom has 8 valence electrons.

Of course, on reaction with sodium, the sodium reduces the chlorine molecule to give 2×Cl−. The resultant bond between Na+ and Cl−is ionic and a non-molecular substance results.

0. Give an example of how an organism can use surface tension.<br><br><br>​
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

In case of plants surface tension help to support the transpiration pull.

Explanation:

Surface tension is a force that hold the molecules in the surface to minimize the surface area.

   During evaporation of excess amount of water from the stomata of leaves of plants by transpiration a surface tension is generated.

   The generated surface tension helps to maintain the water column within the xylem tissue by the absorption of water from the soil by the roots.

GIVE THE DEFINITION OF EACH WORD.
KATRIN_1 [288]

1. a group of resources treated as a single entity that accepts a combination of materials and instructions to add value through a series of operations; may be either automated or manual.

2. a group of cells that have similar structure and that function together as a unit. A nonliving material, called the intercellular matrix, fills the spaces between the cells.

3. a differentiated structure (such as a heart, kidney, leaf, or stem) consisting of cells and tissues and performing some specific function in an organism.

4. a group of organs that work together to perform a certain function in an organism's body.

5.  complex systems of chemical compounds that, through interaction and environment, play a wide variety of roles. Organisms are semi-closed chemical systems. Although they are individual units of life (as the definition requires), they are not closed to the environment around them.

6. the significance of the charge hosted by a particular atom in a molecule becomes obvious

7. an interacting group of various species in a common location

8. an ecological community comprised of biological, physical, and chemical components

9. the variety of life found in a place on Earth

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The structures shown by dots and lines to give the exact number of electrons in the outer most shell is explained by Lewis Structures.

Explanation:

Lewis structures are those structures in which the diagram is shown using the electron representation. They are easy to understand as the diagram completely depicts where the electrons are shared and where they are transferred. The diagram also explains where there is a single bond and where there is a di covalent bond or tri covalent bond explaining where the single , double or triple electron pair is shared. The electrons are shown by dots or lines.

For example CCl₄ can be shown as follows

                  ..

               .. Cl..

  ..                               ..

..Cl..----------C----------..Cl..

                   ..

                .. Cl..

The picture shows that each chlorine has six electrons in its outer shell and then a pair of electron is shared with carbon forming a single covalent bond.

Similarly methane CH4 can also be shown.

The hydrogen has one electron and it shares an electron from carbon stabilising itself forming methane.
