nitrogen aton in NH3 has one lone pair of electron
No.
CH4 has no lone pairs.It has 4 repulsive units.So shape is tetrahedral
NH3
covalent bonds --- sharing electrons
no way
No.
The Central atom has no lone pairs in CH4
nh3-nh3 because they are both polar molecules
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
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..
CH4 has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral.
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
CH4 has no lone pairs.It has 4 repulsive units.So shape is tetrahedral
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.
It has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral
Methane has a tetrahedral molecular geometry. It has 4 bonding pairs of electrons and no lone pairs.
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.
