Covalent Compound: Cocaine Cocaine‚ also known as coke‚ is a covalent compound‚ which are molecules that consist of groups of atoms held together by covalent or coordinate bonds. In the United States cocaine is an illegal drug because of the harm it does to a human’s body. It has been used for many years for many different reasons by many different people. Cocaine and it’s leaves‚ which are found on the plant of the Erythroxylen coca (cocaine.org)‚ originated by the South American Indians who have

Differences Between Ionic and Covalent Compounds Abstract In chemistry‚ a compound is a substance formed from two or more elements‚ with a fixed ratio determining the composition. A defining characteristic of a compound is that it has a chemical formula. Formulas describe the ratio of numbers of atoms in a substance. Compounds may have a number of possible phases. For a compound to be a liquid or a gas and still be called a compound‚ atoms from the various elements must be stuck together in

Tolentino Maria Oyervide EXPERIMENT #4 IONIC AND COVALENT COMPOUNDS Abstract: This experiment was divided in four steps to find the electrical conductivity of covalent and ionic solutions. There were four unknown solutes A‚ B and C. Each had a specific weight and was dissolved in a certain amount of solute to form either the covalent or ionic solution. Covalent compounds are made up of molecules which are electrically neutral. Ionic compounds are composed of ions‚ which are positively or negatively

Sharing Electrons Example~ A hydrogen atom has one electron. If it had two electrons‚ it would have the same electron configuration as a helium atom. Two hydrogen atoms can achieve a stable electron configuration by sharing their electrons and forming a Covalent bond. A covalent bond is a chemical bond in which two atoms share a pair of valence electrons. When two atoms shair one pair of electrons‚ the bond is called a singe bond. Molecules of Elements Two hydrogen atoms bonded together

non-metal substance it forms covalent bonds‚ which make molecules. The metal becomes positively charged atoms‚ which means that the number of electrons is never less than the number of protons. Non-metals become negatively charged atoms‚ and now the number of electrons is more than the number of protons. When atoms share electrons of nonmetals then a covalent bond is formed inside the molecule. Monatomic elements are elements that only contain one type of atom. An example of this would be the noble

Covalent Bonds Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons‚ one from each atom in a single bond‚ to form electron pairs‚ usually making their outermost shells up to eight electrons by this means. This would make them more stable‚ less reactive and an electronic structure like a noble gas. They are most frequently formed between pairs of non-metallic elements. Non-metallic elements usually have from four to eight electrons in their outermost shells‚ the so-called valency electrons‚ which

you will burn the penny and spray it off and then it will turn gold. There will be a weight change also a mass change. Observing the penny to see it turn from bronze to silver to gold. Literature review Covalent bonding is a bond when atoms share pairs of electron to become stable. For covalent bonding‚ two or more elements must have shared electrons. Atoms become stable by filling up their outermost shell with shared electrons. An atom can only have 8 electrons and that rule came from the Octet

will attract together because they have the opposite charges. Then an ionic bond is formed. How do covalent bonds form? A covalent bond is for sharing of electrons. I remember it like co-existing electrons to share (Eg H20). It is usually between two non-metals. Which compound‚ sugar or salt‚ is a better conductor of electricity? Explain your answer. Salt‚ because it’s an ionic compound (there isn’t a real bond‚ but a charge separation e.g. NaCl in reality is Na+ Cl-) Part One: Substance:

*Compound Interest/Discount* Compound Interest When you borrow money from a bank‚ you pay interest. Interest is really a fee charged for borrowing the money‚ it is a percentage charged on the principle amount for a period of a year - usually. If you want to know how much interest you will earn on your investment or if you want to know how much you will pay above the cost of the principal amount on a loan or mortgage‚ you will need to understand how compound interest works. * Compound interest

Covalent Bonding In a covalent bond‚ a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms. Each of the positively charged nuclei is attracted to the same negatively charged pair of electrons. The diagram: A and B are held together by this shared attraction. Covalent bonds are often drawn as dots and crosses diagrams to show that the electrons have come from two different atoms. Molecules have a certain fixed number of atoms in them joined together by covalent bonds. Examples: Bonding in hydrogen
