They discovered this since S waves don’t travel through the earth but P waves do. P waves tend to travel faster than S waves in speed, 1&14km/s vs 1&8km/s
Remember that
- For being a bond covalent ∆E<1.8
- For being a bond ionic ∆E>1.8
#1
Carbon is present so it's covalent
#2
#3
- P-H will hardly form a bond
#4
#5
