There are many safety precautions and rules you MUST follow during labs.
for this incident here is what you should do:
1)Notify your Instructor and partner
2) if the liquid is toxic (like not water or vinegar) then let your Instructor handle it properly, or follow your instructors orders (like if they say to put a towel over it or something like that)
3) Broken glassware, minus mercury thermometer, must be immediately cleaned up, do not use your bare hand, always wear gloves.
4)dispose of the broken glass properly and clean the liquid up (unless it is harmful, then let your instructor do it)

Answer:

Ionic

Explanation:

Mg has 2 electron in it's outermost orbit, by donating this two electron to Sulfur it get stable mg 2+ electronic configuration while sulfur has 6 electron in it's outermost shell ,so sulfur accept this 2 electron and complete it's octet and become s2–.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) has a higher boiling point than bromine (Br2) partly because iodine monochloride is a(n)

tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine $(Br_2)$ is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.
