Question

Explain the nature of covalent bond formation in ch3cl

Answer 1

Explanation:

it has single bond.bcz it can complete his covalent bond.

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon has 4 valence electrons. In order to make octet, it shares each of the four electrons with each of the three hydrogen atoms and one chloride atom. Since, bonds are formed because of sharing of electrons, hence these are covalent bonds.

Explanation:

Carbon neither gains nor looses electrons as it has a valency of four .it completes its octet by sharing its four electrons with other carbon atoms or with atoms of other elements. The bonds that are formed by sharing electrons are known as covalent bonds. In covalent bonding, both the atoms share the valence electrons, i.e., the shared electrons belong to the valence shells of both the atoms. Here, carbon requires 4 electrons to complete its octet, while each hydrogen atom requires one electron to complete its duplet. Also, chlorine requires an electron to complete the octet. Therefore, all of these share the electrons and as a result, carbon forms 3 bonds with hydrogen and one with chlorine.
