Answer : % ionic character is 0.20%

              Bonding between the two metals will be purely metallic.

Explanation: For the calculation of % ionic character, we use the formula

\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(X_A-X_B)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)

where X_A & X_B are the Pauling's electronegativities.

The table attached has the values of electronegativities, by taking the values of Al and Mn from there,

X_{Al}=1.61

X_{Mn}=1.55

Putting the values in the electronegativity formula, we get

\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(1.61-1.55)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)

                                               = 0.20%

Now, there are 3 types of inter atomic bonding

1) Ionic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms

2) Covalent Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond involving the sharing of electron pairs between 2 atoms.

3) Metallic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is an electrostatic force between the positively charged metal ions and delocalised electrons.

In Al_6Mn compound, the % ionic character is minimal that is \sim0.20% and there are two metal ions present, therefore this compound will have metallic bonding.

When nonpolar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for wate
satela [25.4K]

Answer:  increase in entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

When the non polar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for water to hydrogen-bond with itself. That means the water molecules are more randomly arranged and thus have more entropy and thus \Delta S is positive.

What is the nature of the Ca-Cl bond in a molecule of calcium chloride (CaCl2) if the electronegativity value of calcium is 1.0
nevsk [136]
Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.
