An ionic bond is a bond formed between a metal and a nonmetal atom, which is contrary to a molecular bond which is between nonmetals. Also, in ionic bonds, the atoms do not share electron like in molecular compound but one atom gain and the other lose balance electrons.

In comparison, ionic bonds are way stronger than molecular and they cause the formulation cations and anions (ions that are positive and negative, respectively).

Which of the fallowing scientific claims about the bond in the molecular compound HF is most likely to be true?
DENIUS [597]

The bond is highly polar is the scientific claim about the bond in the molecular compound HF is most likely to be true.

The term polar means that there is separation of charges, the bonds will be the more polar the greater the difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms.

  • In hydrogen fluoride, for example, F is more electronegative than H because its nucleus, with 9 positive charges, attracts e-shares with H more strongly than the nucleus of H, with only one positive charge.

  • Therefore, the e- shared by covalence will be closer to F than to H and the molecule forms a permanent dipole.

Therefore, we can conclude that the bond is highly polar is the scientific claim about the bond in the molecular compound HF is most likely to be true.

4. Evaluate the information contained in this calculation and complete the
Neporo4naja [7]

Since you did not give a calculation, I will just give an example. Suppose that you are to burn 5 kg of methane (CH4) from 0 to 10°C. The specific heat capacity of methane is 4.475 kJ/kg-K.

H = mCpT

H = (5kg)( 4.475 kJ/kg-K)(10-0)

H = 223.75 kJ

Because the enthalpy is positive in value, methane takes in heat.
