Do ch4 have lone pair electrons?

No.


How many lone pairs of electrons exist on the central atom in carbon CH4?

The Central atom has no lone pairs in CH4


What pair of molecules has the strongest dipole - dipole interactions co2-co2 or co2-ch4 or nh3-nh3 or nh3-ch4 or ch4-ch4.?

nh3-nh3 because they are both polar molecules


How many valence electrons does CH4?

In CH4 molecule, the Carbon atom initially has four valence electrons, which are all used to form covalent bonds with the four Hydrogen atom. Hydrogen atom has only one valence electron, which is also used to form bonds with Carbon. Overally, there is no valence lone pair of electron in a molecule of CH4


Why is the water bond angle 104.5 less than the CH4 bond angle 109.5?

in water there are two bond pairs and two lone pairs where as in CH4 there are are four bond pairs nad no lone pair. in ch4 there is only bond pair to bond pair repulsion but in water there are three types of repulsions, lone to lone (greatest repulsion), lone to bond ( lesser repulsion ) and bond to bond ( the least repulsion) , therefore due to the presence of two lone pairs in water the bond pairs are repelled with greater force and they get compressed, reducing the ideal bond angle from 109.5 to 104.5 on the other hand, ch4 has only bond pairs and they dont repel each other that strongly so its angle is greater n its 109.5..


Molecule geometry of ch4?

CH4 has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral.


How many molecules of H2O and CO2 can be made from 4 molecules of CH4 and excess O2?

The balanced equation for the combustion of CH4 is CH4 + 2O2 ==> CO2 + 2H2O4 molecules of CH4 will produce 4 molecules of CO2 and 8 molecules of H2O


What is the vsepr of ch4?

CH4 has no lone pairs.It has 4 repulsive units.So shape is tetrahedral


Is CH4 a polyatomic ion?

CH4 is a moleculce composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Ions are molecules or atoms that contain a charge due to a gain or loss of electrons.


What is the shape of a moelecule of ch4?

It has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral


What is the molecular geometry of a methane (CH4) molecule?

Methane has a tetrahedral molecular geometry. It has 4 bonding pairs of electrons and no lone pairs.


Is CH4 hydrogen bonding?

Hydrogen bonding usually occurs between molecules that have a hydrogen atom bonded to either Fluorine, Oxygen or Nitrogen. So technically CH4 cannot hydrogen bond (certainly not between it's own molecules). However a recent A-Level exam paper had a multiple choice question which said that CH4 molecules CAN hydrogen bond with itself.
