I suppose you know that C has 4 outer energy level electrons. Elements with few (1 or 2) electrons tend strongly to lose those electrons and form pos. ions. Elements with 6 or 7 outer electrons tend to gain electrons and form neg. ions. But C with 4 can be stable and in the free state... coal, graphite... but when it does form compounds its nucleus has an attraction for its own electrons so that it doesn't lose them and form pos. ions, but the nucleus isn't quite strong enough to a take electrons from other elements and form neg. ions. This tendency is referred to by chemists as electronegativity.
So in forming compounds it shares electrons and forms molecules. To get a full outer energy level with 8 electrons carbon must share its 4 outer electrons with other atoms so that they are sharing electrons as well and form 4 of these sharing bonds called covalent bonds by chemists.
What else can I help you with?
Don says he is a non-smoker. Suggest one other way carbon monoxide could have go into Don' s blood before he came to work tht day?
Carbon monoxide could have entered Don's bloodstream through exposure to car exhaust fumes while stuck in traffic on his way to work. Sitting in a car with poor ventilation can lead to the accumulation of carbon monoxide, which can be absorbed through breathing.
Where do the carbon atoms from the carbon dioxide go?
During photosynthesis, carbon atoms from carbon dioxide are converted into glucose through a series of chemical reactions. The carbon atoms become part of the glucose molecules and are stored in the plant's tissues.
Will a burning spilint go out in carbon dioxide gas?
Yes, a burning splint will go out in carbon dioxide gas because carbon dioxide does not support combustion. When the concentration of oxygen is low, the splint will not have enough oxygen to sustain combustion and will be extinguished.
In what gas does burning magnesium go out in?
Burning magnesium will go out in carbon dioxide gas.
Why does the mass of carbon go down as it is heated in oxygen?
When carbon burns in oxygen, it forms carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The carbon from the fuel combines with the oxygen from the air to produce this gas, leading to a decrease in the mass of the solid carbon as it is converted into a gaseous product.
How do you walk under the water in Wind Waker?
Unless you go to the tower of gods and go to underwater hyrule there is no other way to walk under water.
What kind of radioactive decay does carbon 14 go under?
Carbon-14 undergoes beta decay, where a neutron in the carbon-14 nucleus is transformed into a proton, resulting in the emission of a beta particle (an electron) and an antineutrino. This process transforms carbon-14 into nitrogen-14.
Do dolphines have blowholes?
Excuse the answer of my friend there... Yes. Dolphins do in fact have blow holes. They are considered aquatic mammals, and can not breathe under water, so they go to the surface to inhale oxygen or to exhale excess water and carbon.
How far do electric eels go under water?
All the way at the bottom.
How would you develop bonding with a child?
i think that you should go out with them for some bonding do activities with both(you should find somthing he/she might want to do
How do you make homemade traps?
Take a basket and prop it up with a stick or something, tie a rope to it, put bait under it, then wait for the squirrel to go under it all the way. If he doesn't go in all the way, then you won't catch him. I learned that the hard way. : ) Hope this helps.
Why cold drinks are bottled under a carbon dioxide pressure greater than 1 ATM?
The Carbon Dioxide must be 'injected' under pressure - because it doesn't dissolve in the drink. It is always separate - which is why carbonated drinks eventually go 'flat' if they're left exposed to the air.
How can you get a gibble?
go under the cycling path next to the cave near the hiker go along under the cycling road and you will find it
How do you get a Gun Carry Bond?
It depends on where you are, but generally speaking, you go to a bonding company.
Is nfs carbon better than nfs most wanted?
Dawg to tell u the truth I like both but I gota go with carbon u can do way more stuff n carbon and they got better carz but most wanted is also good
Where does an animals or plant carbon go when it dies?
The carbon is released back into the carbon pool in the atmosphere
