<span>The type of bond that a
Phosphorous pentachloride have is an Ionic Bonding. It is a form of chemical
bond that encompasses the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged
ions which serves as the primary interaction happening in ionic compound. Phosphorus
has 5 valence electrons and Chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Phosphorus contributes
1 electron to each chlorine and all the 6 achieve 8 electrons in the outer
shell thus creating an ionic bond.</span>
Answer:
Cs and I
Explanation:
Salts are formed when an ionic bond is formed between two elements in the compound. Let us recall that the kind of bond formed between any two elements depends on the magnitude of electronegativity difference between the two elements.
Among the options listed, the highest degree of electronegativity difference occurs for the bond between Cs and I. This implies that this bond is ionic and the combination of the two elements will lead to salt formation.
Democritus was the first to propose the idea of the atom. He said the atom was just this tiny, solid sphere. However, he used no scientific evidence to support his claim, so a guy named John Dalton did some experimenting and basically backed up Democritus' claim with evidence. Then, a guy named J.J. Thompson came along and said the atom was not solid and that is consisted of tiny negatively charged particles(electrons) and he came up with the Plum Pudding model which is just a tiny sphere with a punch of random scattered dots in it. After that, Ernest Rutherford did experiments and found that the tiny sphere is made up of mostly empty space with a tiny, dense, positively charged sphere inside of it, and the negatively charged particles just randomly float around it. Neils Bohr then said that the electrons take specific, circular, evenly spaced paths. Then, finally, we come to the Quantum Mechanical Model which is the one accepted today. This model basically vetos Bohr's idea and has a nucleus inside of an electron cloud, which is where the electrons are found.
