How does a carbon dioxide molecule have a stable set of 8 valence electrons for each atom?
Carbon dioxide is a molecular compound with covalent bonds. This means that the oxygen and carbon atoms share electrons so that each atom has a stable octet. Molecular compounds exist only between non-metals.
What is the chemical makeup of carbon monoxide?
Carbon dioxide has the formula CO2. This indicates that it has one carbon (C) atom and two oxygen atoms (O2). Carbon dioxide is approximately 1.5 denser than air and reacts with water to form carbonic acid.
What kind of bonds are possible between carbon and oxygen?
covalent bond
What are Carbon bonds are called?
J says carbon dioxide
How do you describe carbon dioxide gas?
In CO2 molecule, one molecule of carbon is bonded to two oxygen by two double bonds,which is as follows O=C=O
How many bonds does carbon make with oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Carbon makes four bonds with oxygen in carbon dioxide.
Carbon bonds with oxygen to form?
carbon dioxide...Co2 carbon dioxide...Co2
What are held together by multiple covalent bonds?
Examples are oxygen, nitrogen , alkenes with carbon carbon double bonds, alkynes with carbon carbon triple bonds, the carbon oxygen double bonds in carbon dioxide
Does carbon dioxide have a single bond?
No. The two carbon to oxygen bonds are both double bonds.
What is the difference in the bonding between carbons atom in carbon dioxide and butane?
Butane has bonds between carbon atoms.Carbon dioxide hasn't bonds between carbon atoms.
What kind of bond does CO2 form?
the chemical bonds formed in carbon dioxide is to oxygen molecules and one carbon molecule
Carbon can react to how many atoms at one time?
It depends on the atoms it is reacting with. If carbon it is 4 eg CH4 is methane, if oxygen it is two eg CO2 is carbon dioxide. This is because carbon can form four bonds, and carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds are double bonds.
H2CO how many bonds?
There are four total covalent bonds in H2CO. There is a single double bond between the oxygen and the carbon and two single bonds between the carbon and hydrogen atoms.
An individual carbon-oxygen bond is polar but carbon dioxide which has two carbon-oxygen bonds is nonpolar why?
The dipoles cancel because they point in opposite directions
Can carbon and oxygen combine?
Yes. Carbon dioxide is a compound formed when a carbon atom covalently bonds to two oxygen atoms with the formula CO2. Carbon monoxide is a compound formed when one carbon atom covalently bonds with one oxygen atom with the formula CO.
Why is carbon monoxide more dangerous than carbon dioxide?
Carbon monoxide bonds the the hemoglobin in out red blood cells. This renders our blood unable to transport oxygen. Carbon dioxide does not do this.
How many double bonds or anything below his structure for carbon dioxide?
The carbon dioxide has two double bonds each with its oxygen atoms. The structure would be O=C=O and is a linear molecule.
