LiF or lithium fluoride is the non covalent molecule or ionic compound.

Option 3.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Covalent molecules are those molecules which do have actual bonds between the atoms present in the molecule by sharing of the electrons. But in ionic molecules, there's no actual bonds between the atoms, but the oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other by means of electrostatic force of attraction.

The molecules that are formed by the atoms with high electronegativity and electropositivity are actually ionic because the atoms with high electronegativity are able to actually gain electron readily and the atoms with high electropositivity are actually ready to give the electrons to the electronegative elements.

Lithium is highly electropositive and fluoride is highly electronegative. So they establish an ionic bond. But other molecules like fluorine molecule has both the electronegative elements, Carbon monoxide has carbon which isn't electropositive highly, and ammonia has hydrogen which isn't electropositive.

So lithium fluoride is the ionic compound.

A mixture of oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen exerts a total pressure of 378 kPa. If the partial pressures of oxygen and hydrogen
sertanlavr [38]
What's the relationship between total and partial pressure? The total pressure is the sum of the parcial pressures!


So for us, it would be:

378= 212+101+x

where x is the parcial pressure of nitrogen.

Now we count:
378= 212+101+x
378=313+x
378-313=x
65=x

So the parcial pressure exerted by nitrogen is 65!
