Water has a relatively high heat capacity, not a low heat capacity. Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by a certain amount. Water has a high heat capacity because it requires a lot of energy to raise its temperature. This property of water is due to the strong hydrogen bonds between its molecules, which require a lot of energy to break. As a result, water can absorb or release a large amount of heat without undergoing a significant change in temperature, making it an excellent heat sink.
The specific heat capacity of water is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1 degree Celsius (or 1 Kelvin). Water has a high specific heat capacity because it requires a lot of energy to raise its temperature. This property of water makes it an important factor in the regulation of temperature in living organisms and in the Earth's climate. It is also why water is often used as a coolant in various types of cooling systems, such as in car radiators and air conditioners.
yes, because since it is a stronger bond than the hydrogen
bond, it gives it a lower heat capacity...
a hydrogen bond has a higher heat capacity because it
takes a large amount of heat energy to cause the molecules to move
faster, which rises the temperature of the water
No. It actually has a relatively high heat capacity.
yes it does give a low heat capacity.
Water is covalently bonded and has a high heat capacity.
Well an Ionic bond is between a metal and a non metal, and Covalent bonds are between non metals, so yeah this is a covalent bond, where the particles share electrons, because Carbon, Oxygen and Hydrogen are non metals. No charges to worry about either! Much easier
covalent bonds are when NON METALS share their electrons to get a full outer shell where ionic bonds are when a METAL and a NON METAL "give" each other electrons so they have a full outer shell.
Lewis dot structures are used to represent the covalent electrons of an element. It can be used to show the sharing of covalent electrons in a covalent bond or just to show the covalent bonds in general.

The number of unpaired electrons in valence shell or numbers of electrons less then 8 in outermost shell of an atom give information about covalent bonds my be formed by an atom.
Silicon is most likely to form covalent bonds because it has four valence electrons and will share electrons rather than give them away.
Because it tends to give up electrons easily.

They all tend to form multiple covalent bonds.
A double bond. Each atom that can share valence electrons has a bonding capacity corresponding to the number of covalent bonds the atom can form. When the bonds form, they give the atom a full complement of electrons in the valence shell. The bonding capacity of oxygen, for example, is 2. ( O=O )
Carbon has 4 electrons in its outer shell - making four bonds would give it the octet.
Well both ionic and covalent bonds are one of the top strongest bonds. They both give or take atoms and they take and give to become equal. They are also one of the few bonds that are the most important because with out them we wouldn't have some of the elements on the periodic table.
