∙ 16y ago4 missing electrons in the outer valence means a possibility of 4 atoms maximum bonding with 1 carbon atom. EX: Methane = 1 Carbon atom and 4 atoms of Hydrogen with no other space for more atoms DIRECTLY connected to the 1 carbon atom.

Does CO2 contain triple bond?
No, it has a triple covalent bond between the Carbon and the Oxygen This is a strange exception in chemistry because normally an Oxygen atom can only have 2 covalent bonds max, the Carbon retains a free valence electron (I think)
What represents the electronic structure of an element?
Electronic structure is how many electrons each shell of an atom can hold. It is written by the number of electrons in the 1st shell (max 2) then a commer, the number of electrons in the 2nd shell (max 8) another commer, how many are in the 3rd shell (max 8) etc. example: 2,8,8
What is the maximum number of valence electrons per atom?
There can be up to 18 valence electrons in a atom, these atoms are krypton, xenon, radon, and sometimes mentioned is ununoctium but is an "unknown element" so the element is not always mentioned
What is the name of the atom with 202 protons?
the known table of elements stops at 118 protons in an atom max. so the question is probably which atom has >102< protons which is radioactive Nobelium at its most stable isotope. 102/256 No
A bond that occurs when an atom transfers an electron to another atom is called a?
Ionic bond
When an atom has four valence electrons how many bonds will it form with other atoms?
The carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds.
What kind of bonds can carbon form?
Covalent single (max. 4x) or double (max. 2x) bonds
How many covalent bond does carbon form?
Carbon can form 4 covalent bonds as in methane. A covalent bond is formed by sharing of 2 electrons. as in methane 4 electron from carbon forms abond with 4hydrogen atom which donates 4 electron to form 4 covalent bonds
The carbon atoms in organic molecules are bonded to other atoms by?
Carbon atoms are fixed into organic compounds in The Calvin Cycle.
Does CO2 contain triple bond?
No, it has a triple covalent bond between the Carbon and the Oxygen This is a strange exception in chemistry because normally an Oxygen atom can only have 2 covalent bonds max, the Carbon retains a free valence electron (I think)
Maximum number of hydrogen bonds in ice?
Because each hydrogen atom can form a hydrogen bond to an oxygen atom in another water molecule and each oxygen atom has two nonbonding electron pairs, each water molecule can form a maximum of four hydrogen bonds to four other water molecules. The result is a tetrahedral cluster of water molecules around the central water molecule. :)
Which element forms max. no. of compounds?
Carbon is the element that forms maximum number of compounds
What represents the electronic structure of an element?
Electronic structure is how many electrons each shell of an atom can hold. It is written by the number of electrons in the 1st shell (max 2) then a commer, the number of electrons in the 2nd shell (max 8) another commer, how many are in the 3rd shell (max 8) etc. example: 2,8,8
What is the max number of covalent bonds nitrogen could make with hydrogen?
Four covalent, polar, bonds with H atoms in ammonium ion: NH4+ (the same configuration as CH4).
What ability allows carbon atom to form a large number of molecules?
The motabolism.
What is the valance of electrons in carbon?
The atomic number of carbon is 6. 6 protons, 6 electrons. Two in the first shell and 4 on the second shell leaving 4 spaces open, making the second shell the valence shell and the 4 spaces open the valence- valence is the bonding capacity, in other words the electrons needed to fill the second shell. First shell max is 2 electrons Seccond shell max is 8 electrons
CHEMICAL composition of IS 2062 Grade A?
Carbon 0.25% max Manganese 1.55% max Sulphur 0.050% max Phosphorous 0.050% max Silicon 0.43% max
