four hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom to form methane (CH4)
diamond is mainly made from carbon atoms tightly bonded together by gaint covalent bonds forming a regular lattice. there is no delocalised electorns and therefore it doesn't conduct electricity.
In SOLIDS, molecules are most tightly bonded together.
No
No, they are not packed tightly together. The particles in solids are. In gas, they move in random motion and are the furthest apart, compared to solids and liquids. Hope this helps :)
Diamond IS the HARDEST of naturally occurring materials because it is composed of extremely small atoms (carbon) packed extremely tightly where they share atoms in a type of bonding known as covalent bonding. Termed lattice density, diamond packs atoms more tightly than any other natural material and that combined with the covalent bonding is why it is so hard.
The salt breaks down into ions because the covalent water compound is bound together tightly.

covalent bonds join all the atoms tightly together
Yes, they are packed closely together

very tightly
they are not held together.
Tightly woven designs.
matter
sequence together.
The gas particles are freely moving because they are not tightly arranged together
To cling is to grasp tightly.
