Chapter 4, Problem 4.39AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compounds containing coordinate covalent bond from the given compounds are needed to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Coordinate bond which is also called a dative bond is formed when the electrons to form the bond is given by a single atom.

${\text{eg:NH}}_{\text{4}}{}^{\text{+}}\text{,}{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}{\text{O}}^{\text{+}}$

Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons between atoms.

${\text{eg:CO}}_{\text{2}}\text{,}{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$
