What else can I help you with?
If the shared electrons of a molecule are drawn to one atom more than to the other they are said to form a bond?
Polar covalent. In this type of bond, the electrons are unequally shared, resulting in a partial positive and partial negative charge on the atoms involved in the bond. It is an intermediate between a nonpolar covalent bond (equal sharing) and an ionic bond (complete transfer of electrons).
Is the number og bonding pairs in a molecule equal to the number of electrons?
false, it would be true if it didn't say ionic and instead said covalent bond.
How many electrons are lost or gained in the element o when they form ions?
atoms gain and lose electrons, so they can have a full outer shell of 8 electrons (or two electrons if its the innermost shell) when atoms lose electrons it is called oxidation and when they gain electrons they are said to be reduced. OIL RIG is most commonly used to help remember that oxidation is loss and reduction is gain of electons. when atoms lose electrons they are left with a positive charge and when they can electrons they have a negative charge.
Why are atoms considered to have no electric charge?
It is because an atom consists of electrons(negatively charged) and protons(positively charged) and neutrons(no charge), and the no. of electrons and protons are equal. So due to opposite charges between an electron and a proton, an atom has no electric charge or is said to be neutral.
Why can a carbon atom can bond easily with other atoms?
A carbon atom can easily bond with other atoms because it has four valence electrons, allowing it to form stable covalent bonds by sharing electrons with other atoms. This versatility allows carbon to form a wide variety of compounds with different elements.
If electrons are shared equally between atoms that compose a molocule that molocule is said to be polar?
No, if electrons are shared equally between atoms in a molecule, the molecule is said to be nonpolar. A polar molecule occurs when there is an uneven distribution of electrons, leading to regions of partial positive and negative charges.
Where electrons are equally shared the bond is said to be a what kind of bond?
The bond is said to be a covalent bond. In a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms, typically in nonmetallic elements, in order to achieve a stable electron configuration.
If two electrons are shared between atoms it is said to be what covalent bond?
A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons. This sharing allows both atoms to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Polar covalent compound?
covalent compounds are said to be polar when shared pair of electrons are unequally distributed between the two atoms .
True or false if valence electrons are shared between atoms the bond is said to be covalent?
True. In a covalent bond, atoms share valence electrons to achieve a full outer shell and form a stable molecule.
If two electrons are shared between atoms it is said to be a covalent bond?
Yes, that is true. It is NOT a double bond, however. That would be the sharing of 4 total electrons. If 2 electrons from the same atom are shared, it is called a dative bond, or a coordinate covalent bond.
When atoms in a covalent bonds have a rather high difference in their electronegativities the bonds is said to be?
When atoms in a covalent bond have a rather high difference in their electronegativities, the bond is said to be polar covalent. In polar covalent bonds, electrons are unequally shared between the atoms, resulting in a partial positive and partial negative charge on the atoms.
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons equally the bond is said be?
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons equally, the bond is said to be nonpolar covalent. This means that the atoms have similar electronegativities, resulting in a symmetrical distribution of electrons between them.
Two hydrogen atoms can share their electrons in what type of chemical bond?
Elemental hydrogen (H2) has two atoms sharing and electron cloud, as a binary molecule. In this arrangement the bonding is said to be covalent.
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons equall the bond is said to be?
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons equally, the bond is said to be nonpolar. This occurs when the electronegativity difference between the atoms is small or negligible.
When a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms a covalent bond is said to have formed most often the pair is formed?
from overlapping atomic orbitals of the two atoms. The electrons are shared in order to achieve a stable electron configuration for both atoms, typically by filling their valence shells. This sharing results in a strong attraction that holds the atoms together in a stable molecule.
When a pair of electrons is shared unequally between two atoms the bond formed is?
Such a bond is said to be polar. A polar bond is formed when electrons are unequally shared between two atoms. Polar covalent bonding occurs because one atom has a stronger affinity (preference) for electrons than the other (yet not enough to pull the electrons away completely and form an ion).
