B) H₂

Explanation:

Only H₂ is a non-polar covalent molecule among the given options. A non-polar covalent bond forms between homonuclear atoms that are chemically bonded.

  • In the formation of covalent bonds, each atom shares the valence electrons in their outer energy shells to be able to mimic the noble gases.
  • In homonuclear molecules, the two bonding atoms are of the same kind and the electronegativity difference is zero.
  • The covalent bond between them is a called a non-polar covalent bond.
  • Here there is equal sharing of the electron pair between the pair of atoms and there is no electrostatic charge on the molecule.

How does electronegativity affects the type of intramolecular bond that is formed between atoms
Effectus [21]

Answer:

If the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms are too much high ionic bonds are formed if the electronegativity diference is 0.4 or less than 0.4 non polar covalnet bond formed the difference greater than 0.4 polar covalent bond formed.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

A calorimeter contains 251 g of water at 24.3 C.The temperature of the water decreases to 18.5 C when 12.5 g of potassium nitrat
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Endothermic  

Explanation:

The temperature of the water decreased.

The water lost heat.

The heat must have gone into getting the KNO₃ into solution.

So, the dissolving of KNO₃ in water is endothermic.

Adding energy has no effect on the rate of evaporation? True or False ?
zlopas [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Evaporation occurs when molecules in a liquid gain enough energy that they overcome attractions from other molecules and break away to become a gas. Adding energy increases the rate of evaporation.

Hope this helped!
