Explanation:
When carbon atom tends to form single bonds then its hybridization is
, when carbon atom tends to form double bond then its hybridization is
and when a carbon atom is attached to a triple bond or with two double bonds then its hydridization is sp.
For example, in HCN molecule there is a triple existing between the carbon and nitrogen atom.
So, hybridization of carbon in this molecules is sp. Moreover, nitrogen atom is also attached via triple bond and it also has a lone pair of electrons. Hence, the hybridization of nitrogen atom is also sp.
Thus, we can conclude that s and p type of orbitals overlap to form the sigma bond between C and N in H−C≡N:
Answer:
Something like table salt (NaCl) is a compound because it is made from more than one kind of element (sodium and chlorine), but it is not a molecule because the bond that holds NaCl together is an ionic bond. If you like, you can say that sodium chloride is an ionic compound.
Explanation:
it means basically the same thing but can be used in different context. like if someone says, "lets diffuse the situation." it means lets separate it and find out what's going on with it. Like if you don't understand a sentence when you were younger your teacher would tell you to break down the sentence, and try to use context clues. What you are doing is diffusing the sentence so that your not looking at it as one big confusing sentence, your "breaking it down" and that helps you a lot. I hope I helped you, if not let me know and I can diffuse the topic a little more to make it more approachable and easy to understand. :)
The only food that provides all the nutrients that humans need is human milk," Hattner said. "Mother's milk is a complete food. We may add some solid foods to an infant's diet in the first year of life to provide more iron and other nutrients, but there is a little bit of everything in human milk.
