What type of bond would occur between lithium (Li) and oxygen (O)?

Chemistry

Ghella [55]3 years ago

Answer:

D. Ionic bond

Explanation:

First some definitions: ionic bonds always have metals that transfer electrons. Covalent bonds are between nonmetals that share electrons. (Sharing is caring!)

Li is a metal, so right off the bat we know this is not a covalent bond. However, it's not a metal, so we can cross off C as well. The phrase "paired bond" isn't common, so we know the answer must be D. ionic bond.

And in this bond, Li's electrons will transfer to O to make both have a full valence shell. (As opposed to covalent bonds, which share electrons, not transfer completely.)

NeX [460]

Answer:

For H-Cl, the direction is towards the chlorine atom

For F-CH3, the direction is towards the flourine atom.

Explanation:

The dipole moment is a vector quantity. This implies that it has both magnitude and direction.

Thus, the direction of the dipole moment always points from the positive atom towards the negative atom.

This explains the fact that it points to chlorine in HCl and points to flourine in F-CH3
