Covalent bonding is between non-metal atoms and involved the sharing of electron pairs, whereas ionic bonding is between a metal and a non-metal and involves the transfer of an electron from the metal to ...

The forces between the iodine molecules are stronger compared to the ones between chlorine

This is because when the metals are heated (burned), their electrons can briefly 'jump' from lower energy electron shells to higher energy electron shells. This requires energy to happen, and light is not...

First you must calculate the moles of Mg that originally reacted. moles = mass/Mr moles=48/24 moles= 2 Molar ratio of Mg to MgCl2 is 1:1 Therefore 2 moles of MgCl2 were produced moles= mass/Mr mass= moles...

First we need to calculate the total mass of a CO₂ molecule. This is done by summing up the individual masses of all the atoms. To find these, we look at the periodic table and see that the mas...
