Answer:
There are approximately 5.55 moles
Explanation:
Covalent compounds are composed of atoms that are linked via covalent bonds i.e. bonds formed by mutual sharing of electrons. This is in complete contrast to ionic compounds which are held together by ionic bonds, i.e. bonds formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.
In the given examples we have:
Barium nitrate: Ba(NO3)2 - Ionic
Dinitrogen tetroxide: N2O4- Covalent
Boron trifluoride: BF3-Covalent
Ammonium sulfate: (NH4)2SO4- Ionic
Carbon tetrachloride: CCl4- Covalent
Barium chloride: BaCl2 - Ionic
Bonds formed between atoms can be classified as ionic and covalent
Ionic bonds are formed between atoms that have a high difference in the electronegativity values.
In contrast, bonds formed between atoms that have a difference in electronegativity lower than the ionic counterparts are polar covalent bonds. If the atoms have very similar electronegativities, they form non-polar covalent bonds.
In H2S, the S atom is bonded to 2 H atoms. The electronegativity of H = 2.2 and S= 2.56. Since the difference is not high the bond formed will be covalent (polar covalent).
D. With the same number of protons and different number of neutrons.
