explain how both hydrogen and carbon have achieved stability by bonding with each other to form methane ​

Chemistry

Each element tries to achieve stability by forming a noble gas configuration (2 or 8 valence electrons)

Carbon has 4 valence electrons, achieving stability requires 4 more electrons

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron, achieving stability requires 1 more electron

Carbon and hydrogen bond covalently by sharing their electrons so that they become stable (carbon binds 4 hydrogens) to form CH₄ (methane)

A carbon iota can bond with four other iotas and is just like the four-hole wheel, whereas an oxygen iota, which can bond only to two, is just like the two-hole wheel.

Predict: In each "Climate type" box, Highlight the condition you think will lead to the fastest weathering for the given weather
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Frost Wedging - Hot and dry

Clay Formation - Cold and Wet

Dissolving - Cold, and dry

Explanation:

The frost wedging happen when the climatic condition is hot and dry. The dry weather compensates the heat and the rock wedging happens quickly. For clay formation the weather has to be cold and wet. The cold weather will make the sand indulge with rock particles resulting in the clay formation.

With initial consent for a warrantless search, police spent three days searching a
xz_007 [3.2K]

Michigan v. Tyler was the Supreme court ruling that they violated when

warrantless search was done.

<h3>Michigan v. Tyler case</h3>

The Court of Appeals of the State of Michigan affirmed the conviction for the

exception of a warrantless search only in the case of an arson.

In this case, there was no arson involved which is against the rule of law as

various items (stolen money, illegal weapons, drugs) were only searched for.

This thereby violates the U.S. Supreme Court ruling between Michigan v.

Tyler.

What salt is produced in each of the following neutralization reactions? HNO3(aq)+KOH(aq)→H2O(l)+? HNO3(aq)+Ca(OH)2(aq)→H2O(l)+?
Igoryamba

Answer:

1. KNO3

2. Ca(NO3)2

3. CaCl2

4. KCl

Explanation:

In each of the neutralization reactions, the H from one of the reactant(acid) will combine with the OH from the other reactant (base) to form water while the other elements combine to give the salt as shown below:

1. HNO3 + KOH → H2O + KNO3

The salt produced is KNO3

2. 2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2H2O + Ca(NO3)2

The salt produced is Ca(NO3)2

3. 2HCl +Ca(OH)2 → 2H2O + CaCl2

The salt produced is CaCl2

4. HCl +KOH → H2O + KCl

The salt produced is KCl
