CH4 (methane) has one C-atom and four H-atoms. C-atoms have 6 electrons, and H-atoms have 1, so it would look like this:
6+1*4=6+4=10
In CH4 molecule, the Carbon atom initially has four valence electrons, which are all used to form covalent bonds with the four Hydrogen atom. Hydrogen atom has only one valence electron, which is also used to form bonds with Carbon. Overally, there is no valence lone pair of electron in a molecule of CH4
In methane (CH4), the central carbon atom does not have any lone pairs of electrons. Instead, it forms four single covalent bonds with the four hydrogen atoms around it.
Methane (CH4) does not have any lone pairs of electrons on the central carbon atom. All electrons are involved in bonding with the four hydrogen atoms, resulting in a tetrahedral geometry.
CH4 (methane) is a covalent compound.

CH4 (methane) is a covalent compound.
No, methane (CH4) does not have any lone pair electrons around the central carbon atom. Each hydrogen atom shares one electron with carbon in a single covalent bond.
CH4 is a covalent compound.It is non polar
Yes, methane (CH4) is a covalent compound. Covalent compounds are formed when atoms share electrons to achieve stability, which is the case in methane where carbon shares electrons with hydrogen atoms.
First you must find the no. on moles in 1.6g of ch4. ie. ch4=C+h4=12+(1.008x4)=16.032 or 16 approx moles=1.6/16=0.1 No. of electrons=no. atoms ie. no of moles x 6.022x10^23 =0.1x 6.022x10^23 =>6.022 x 10^22(approx)
ionic? carbon needs 4 electrons to be stable and there are 4 hydrogens who each want to give one
all carbon atoms have 4 valence electrons. 4 hydrogen atoms can bond to a single carbon. That would be methane.
