Does CH4 dissolve in CCl4?
No because water only dissolves polar covalent bonds and CH4 is Nonpolar
Living things are made up of very complicated molecules Why is carbon important for forming these complicated molecules?
It forms very strong bonds.
Why are homologous pairs called tetrads?
Homologous pairs are called tetrads because these pairs are maid up of a four-part structure. Tetrad literally means a group of four.
How would the variety of the organic compounds be different if carbon had seven electrons in its outermost energy level instead of four?
A carbon atom has four electrons in it's outermost energy level. Most atoms become stable when their outermost energy level contains eight electrons. A carbon atom therefore readily forms four covalent bonds with the atoms of other elements.
Molecule that consists of one carbon and four hydrogen atoms?
The molecular formula is CH4. This molecule is know as Carbon tetrahydride or more simply Methane.
How many covalent bonds does CH4?
There are four bonds.All are covalent bonds.
How many covalent bonds are found in methane?
there are four covalent bonds between carbon and hydrogen in methane (CH4).
Pairs of shared electron in methane?
None. Carbon has four electrons in it's valence shell, all of which are used in the bonds with hydrogen
How many covalent bonds does carbon have?
Carbon can form four covalent bonds at most, such as in methane.
Methane CH4 contains four carbon - hydrogen single bonds What is the best description of these bonds?
These are the sigma covalent bonds which formed the bonds as sp3 hybridized orbitals.
What type of bond do atoms share electrons?
In covalent bonds, electrons are shared. In ionic bonds, electrons are transferred.
How many covalent bonds can carbon form with other atoms?
Because its outer shell can hold up to eight electrons, carbon can share electrons with up to four other atoms. Therefore, it can from four covalent bonds.
A single carbon atom can form a maximum of how many covalent bonds?
Maximum of four bonds. It can form four
Does Methane have single or double bonds?
No methane does not contain a triple bond. Methane is a covalent compound: in one molecule of methane, there are four hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to one hydrogen atom each by a single covalent bond (i.e., one single bond between each hydrogen atom and the carbon atom).
Does carbon form four ionic bonds in its compounds carbon forms four ionic bonds in its compounds?
carbon forms only covalent bond.It shares its electrons with some other element. Ex. CH4 methane
What kind of bonds are present in a XeO4 molecule?
There are four coordinate covalent bonds , because Xe has four lone pairs of electrons while each oxygen atom has a deficiency of two electrons in outermost shell.
Why tetra covalent bond not exist?
Can't tell you, because they really DO exist: in methane (CH4) and other alkanes all C atoms have four covalent bonds with H and/or other C atoms.
