Like hydrogen fluoride (HF), water (H2O) is a polar covalent molecule.

The electron pair in a non-polar covalent bond is shared equally by the two bonded atoms, but in a polar covalent bond, the electron pair is shared unequally by the two bonded atoms. Differences in electronegativity are what lead to polar bonding.

The entire transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms is referred to as an ionic bond. It is a kind of chemical connection that produces two ions with opposing charges. In ionic bonding, the nonmetal takes the lost electrons to form a negatively charged anion while the metal loses them to become a positively charged cation.

The reaction below has an equilibrium constant kp=2.2×106 at 298 k. 2cof2(g)⇌co2(g)+cf4(g) calculate kp for the reaction below.
AnnZ [28]

<span>I believe the correct 2nd reaction is:</span>

cof2(g)⇌1/2 co2(g)+1/2 cf4(g)

where we can see that it is exactly one-half of the original

Therefore the new Kp is:

new Kp = (old Kp)^(1/2)

new Kp = (2.2 x 10^6)^(1/2)

<span>new Kp = 1,483.24 </span>

How does a negative ion differ from a positive?
Ilya [14]
A negative ion or anion is an electrically charged atom or group of atoms that are formed by gaining one or more electrons. Whereas a positive ion or cation is an electrically charged atom or group of atoms that are formed by losing one or more electrons. 
The losing and gaining all occurs on the outermost shell.

How do minerals affect igneous rock formations?
wariber [46]
Mineral composition affects the classification of igneous rock. in simplified classification, igneous to is are classified by the type of feldspar present, by the I type a of feldspar present, or the absence of quartz. in case of neither present, then by the type of iron or magnesium present.
