A covalent chemical bond is one in which outer-shell electrons of two atoms are shared so as to satisfactorily fill their respective orbitals.

<h2>Further Explanation;</h2><h3>Chemical bond  </h3>

A bond is a type of force that is formed between atoms of different through the sharing or transfer of electrons.

<h3>Types of chemical bonds.</h3><h3>Covalent bond  </h3>
  • This is a type of bond that is formed between non-metal atoms. It is formed as a result of sharing electrons between non-metal atoms.
  • Outermost electrons are shared between the atoms involved in bonding so as each atom attains a stable configuration.
  • When atoms involved contribute an equal number of electrons to the bond formation, the type of bond is known as a covalent bond
  • A covalent bond may be a dative covalent bond when the shared electrons come from one atom.
<h3>Ionic bond  </h3>
  • This is a type of bond that occurs between metal ions and non-metal ions. Ionic bond occurs as a result of the transfer of electrons from one metal atom to another non-metal atom.
  • After the transfer of electrons, metal atom loses an electron to form a cation while the non-metal atom gains electrons to form an anion.
<h3>Polar covalent bonds </h3>
  • Polar covalent bonds involve uneven sharing of electrons between a non-metal atom and another non-metal atom.
  • Electrons spend more time around one of the atoms involved in bonding than the other atom.
  • The uneven distribution of electrons or differences in electronegativity between atoms bonded to each other is referred to as a polar bond.
  • Examples of polar covalent molecules, S-F, O-F, etc.
<h3>Non-polar covalent bonds </h3>
  • It is a type of covalent bodn in which two atoms share a pair of electrons equally with each other.
  • The electronegativity of the two atoms involved in non-polar covalent are equal.
  • Non-polar covalent bonds involves non-metal non-metal atoms.
  • Examples of non-polar covalent molecules includes; F-F, H-H, etc.

Keywords: Polar covalent, non-polar covalent, ionic bonds, covalent bonds.

Answer:

            A covalent chemical bond is one in which <u>outer-shell electrons of two atoms are shared so as to satisfactorily fill their respective orbitals</u>.

Explanation:

                   Covalent bonds are formed between two atoms having their electronegativity difference less than 1.7. In this type of bonding the valence electrons of one atoms forms molecular bond with the valence electrons of another atom. The electrons are mutually shared.

                   Covalent bond can be non-polar as for example formed between hydrogen and carbon atoms.

                   Also, covalent bond can be polar in nature as that formed between hydrogen and chlorine atoms because the chlorine atom is more electronegative and hence attracts the electrons more towards itself making density of electrons less on hydrogen atom.

Which of the following pairs lists a substance that can neutralize HNO3 and the salt that would be produced from the reaction?
Nutka1998 [239]

NH₃, being a basic gas neutralizes the HNO₃ forming a salt NH₄NO₃

Therefore the correct answer is NH₃ and NH₄NO₃

The solution of which only 32% dissociates to release OH⁻ ions is a weak base. This is because some of the energy is used when the substance reacts with the solution thus some bonds are not broken.

HCl is an acid. This is because it dissociates  in water to give H⁺ as the only positively charged ions.

Arrhenius acid increases the concentration of hydrogen ions because it dissociates to release hydrogen ions as the only positively charged ions in the acid. So the answer is TRUE

Arrhenius base dissociates in water to release hydroxide ions as the only negatively charged ions.

NaOH⁺aq⇒Na⁺ ₍aq₎+ OH⁻₍aq₎

Carbon dioxide readily absorbs radiation with an energy of 4.67 x 10-20 J. What is the wavelength and frequency of this radiatio
Tanya [424]

Answer:

ν = 7.04 × 10¹³ s⁻¹

λ = 426 nm

It falls in the visible range

Explanation:

The relation between the energy of the radiation and its frequency is given by Planck-Einstein equation:

E = h × ν

where,

E is the energy

h is the Planck constant (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s)

ν is the frequency

Then, we can find frequency,

\nu = \frac{E}{h}=  \frac{4.67 \times 10^{-20}J  }{6.63 \times 10^{-34}J.s} = 7.04 \times 10^{13} s^{-1}

Frequency and wavelength are related through the following equation:

c = λ × ν

where,

c is the speed of light (3.00 × 10⁸ m/s)

λ is the wavelength

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu } =\frac{3.00 \times 10^{8} m/s }{7.04 \times 10^{13} s^{-1} } =4.26 \times 10^{-6}m.\frac{10^{9}nm }{1m} = 426 nm

A 426 nm wavelength falls in the visible range (≈380-740 nm)

Which is the stronger acid in each of the following pairs? Explain your reasoning.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:p-hydroxybenzaldehyde is stronger acid to phenol

para-cyanophenol is stronger acid to meta-cyanophenol

o-fluorophenol is stronger acid to p-fluorophenol.

Explanation:

The PKa tool relative to Ph are used to contrast the pairs.

The pKa of phenol is 10. The pKa of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde is 9.24

The pKa for meta-cyanophenol is 8.61 and the pKa for para-cyanophenol is 7.95. 

The pKa value of o-fluorophenol is 8.7, while that of the p-fluorophenol is 9.9. It's obvious that the inductive effect is more dominant at ortho-position, which results in a more acidic nature

The pKa is the pH value at which a chemical species will accept or donate a proton. The lower the pKa, the stronger the acid and the greater the ability to donate a proton in aqueous solution.

Given that at 25.0 ∘C Ka for HCN is 4.9×10−10 and Kb for NH3 is 1.8×10−5, calculate Kb for CN− and Ka for NH4+. Enter the Kb val
neonofarm [45]

Explanation:

Using the expression :

K_a\times K_b=K_w

Where, K_w is the dissociation constant of water.

At 25\ ^0C, K_w=10^{-14}

Thus, for HCN , K_a=4.9\times 10^{-10}

<u>K_b for CN⁻ can be calculated as:</u>

K_a\times K_b=K_w

4.9\times 10^{-10}\times K_b=10^{-14}

K_b=2.0\times 10^{-5}

Thus, for NH₃ , K_b=1.8\times 10^{-5}

<u>K_a for NH_4^+ can be calculated as:</u>

K_a\times K_b=K_w

K_a\times 1.8\times 10^{-5}=10^{-14}

K_a=5.6\times 10^{-10}
