Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

 

                Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bond

                

                Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bond

            

                Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

 

For Br₂;

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.00          (Non Polar Covalent Bond)


For MgS;

                    E.N of Sulfur               =   2.58

                    E.N of Magnesium      =   1.31

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                  1.27          (Ionic Bond)


For SO₂;

                    E.N of Oxygen      =   3.44

                    E.N of Sulfur          =   2.58

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.86          (Polar Covalent Bond)


For KF;

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                    E.N of Potassium      =   0.82

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                3.16          (Ionic Bond)

Result: The Bonds in Br₂ and SO₂ are Covalent in Nature.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

\Delta G=-541.4kJ/mol

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out firstly necessary to write out the described chemical reaction as shown below:

H_2+F_2\rightarrow 2HF

Now, we set up the expression for the calculation of the standard free energy change, considering the free energy of formation of each species, specially those of H2 and F2 which are both 0 because they are pure elements:

\Delta G=2\Delta G_f^{HF}-(\Delta G_f^{H_2}+\Delta G_f^{F_2})\\\\\Delta G=2*-270.70kJ/mol-(0kJ/mol+0kJ/mol)\\\\\Delta G=-541.4kJ/mol

Regards!
