Question
Chapter 2, Problem 6WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The nonpolar molecules such as CH4 participate in hydrogen bonds.
Introduction:
The molecule methane is made of atoms that are joined by covalent bonds. For example, in methane (CH4), a carbon atom contains 6 electrons, in which 2 presents in the innermost shell and the remaining 4 presents in the valence shell. This carbon atom becomes stable by sharing the electrons with 4 hydrogen atoms as per the octet rules, i.e., all atoms in a molecule need 8 electrons in the valence shell, either by sharing, gaining, or losing electrons, to get stable.
