How do you jen and chlorine react to produce hydrogen chloride what bonds are broken and what bonds are formed during this reaction

H---H and Cl---Cl bonds are broken and H---Cl bonds are formed.

Explanation:

The reaction between Hydrogen and Chlorine to produce HCl is:

⇒

In this reaction the reactants are and .

The product is HCl.

The bonds existing in the reactants are

1) H---H bond in  (Non polar and covalent bond)

2)Cl---Cl bond in ( Non polar and covalent bond)

The bonds existing in product is/are:

1)H---Cl bond in HCl (Polar and covalent bond)

So all the chemical bonds in the reactants are broken to produce the chemical bonds in the products

In other words,

The H---H bonds and Cl---Cl bonds are broken to produce H---Cl bonds.

- aluminum and copper chloride.

- the chloride ion to separate the aluminum from the oxygen so that the aluminum can react with the copper ions (and the water molecules).

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
