Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The name of the covalent compounds
Concept introduction:
Covalent compounds are defined as the molecules which have strong bonds because the atom from which the covalent molecules are made are held very tightly together. The attractions between the individual molecules in covalent compounds are small.
These are the molecules made mainly of non-metals by sharing electrons and held together by Vander Waal forces.
A chemical formula represents the number of atoms of each element present in a molecule of a compound.

- Use the simulation (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/16MolecPolarity) to perform the following exercises for a two-atom molecule: (a) Adjust the electronegativity value so the bond dipole is pointing toward B. Then determine what the electronegativity values must be to switch the dipole so that it points toward A. (b) With a partial positive charge on A, turn on the electric field and describe what happens. (c) With a small partial negative charge on A, turn on the electric field and describe what happens. (d) Reset all, and then with a large partial negative charge on A, turn on the electric field and describe what happens.arrow_forward81.
