Cyanide is an especially powerful natural poison derived from a chemical found in wild almonds. even small does have been shown to be extremely lethal to animal cells, and a hand full of wild almonds contains enough cyanide to kill an adult human. cyanide is especially lethal because it works by stopping the mitochondria's ability to function in the production of energy rich molecules. would cyanide also kill plant cells? why or why not?

What best explains whether bromine (br) or neon (ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule. bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons. neon forms covalent bonds because it can share its valence electrons, but bromine has seven valence electrons and can gain only one more electron. neon forms covalent bonds because it has only two electron shells, but bromine has many electron shells and will lose electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule.
