A polar bond is formed with atoms having different electronegativities. The bonding electrons are attracted more towards the atom with greater electronegativity resulting in unequal sharing of electrons. Therefore the molecule develop partial charges and becomes polar. Polar molecules have dipole moment that is the partial charge on molecules due to differences in electronegativity between atoms.

A non-polar bond is formed with atoms having the same electronegativity, hence the bonded pair of electron is shared equally between atoms. Non-polar molecules have no moment.
Note that: symmetrical molecules having polar bonds are non-polar because the dipoles of the bond exert equal and opposite effect. Hence the dipoles cancel the charges.

Example: HCl
In HCl, Cl is more electronegative therefore Cl atom pulls the electron pair of the covalent bond towards itself and develops a partial negative charge. Consequently H develops a partial positive charge. This therfore leads to the formation of a dipole.

explain using diagrams how potassium forms the compound potassium flouride when it reacts with flourine
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.

Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.

Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.

Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.

The edge length of the unit cell of KCl (NaCl-like structure, FCC) is 6.28 Å. Assuming anion-cation contact along the cell edge,
Mila [183]

Answer:

1.33 Å

Explanation:

Given that the edge length , a of the KCl which forms the FCC lattice = 6.28 Å

Also,

For the FCC lattice in which the anion-cation contact along the cell edge , the ratio of the radius of the cation to that of anion is 0.731.

Thus,

\frac {r^+}{r^-}=0.731 .................1

Also, the sum of the radius of the cation and the anion in FCC is equal to half of the edge length.

Thus,

r^++r^-=\frac {a}{2}  ...................2

Given that:

Cl^-\ (r^-) = 1.82\ \dot{A}

To find,

K^+\ (r^+) = ? \dot{A}

Using 1 and 2 , we get:

1.731\ r^+=0.731\times \frac {6.28}{2}

<u>Size of the potassium ion = 1.33 Å</u>
