Q) What is different between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?

A) An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. ... Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In an ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of electron(s) from one atom to another.

An ionic bond will always be formed between a metal and a non-metal.

This is because an atom which loses its valence electrons (metals) acquires a positive charge and another atom which gains the electrons (non-metals) acquires a negative charge.  

Hence, these opposite charges strongly gets attracted towards each other forming a strong bond.

Whereas in a covalent bond, there will be sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

A covalent bond will always be formed between non-metals when they are present in neutral form.

For example, Cl_{2} molecules is formed due to sharing of electrons between the two Cl atoms.

Thus, we can conclude that difference between an ionic bond and a covalent bond is that an ionic bond is a bond between charged atoms, while a covalent bond is a bond between neutral atoms.

A fusion reaction always creates which of the following?
ICE Princess25 [194]

A fusion reaction can be regarded as the type of reaction that occurs where two lighter elements come together in a type of reaction giving rise to a heavier/more massive element.

A fusion reaction always creates a more massive atomic nucleus (option c).

When the two lighter nuclei comes together in a reaction, a more heavier/massive nucleus is formed but its mass will still be less than the combined mass of the two reactant nuclei.

This also indicates that the left over mass may have been released as energy.

Whhat are the maximum number of molecules present in 10g of O2 gas at STP?
Romashka [77]

Of course, at STP, dioxygen is a gas, but 10.0 g is still 10.0 g. We could calculate its volume at STP, which is 22.4 L × its molar quantity, approx. 8⋅L . There are 1.51×1023molecules O2 in 10.0 g O2 .

Choose the compound below that should have the highest melting point according to the ionic bonding model. Choose the compound b
Bingel [31]

Answer:

AlN has highest melting point among given.

Explanation:

As per ionic model, ionic compounds are held together by electrostatic force. The ionic compound having strong electrostatic force will have high melting point.

Electrostatic force is proportional to charge and size of constituent ions.

F=k \frac{q_+\times q_-}{r^2}

In case of MgO

Charge on Mg = +2

Charge on O = -2

F=-k \frac{(+2)\times (--2)}{r^2}=\frac{4k}{r^2}

In case of LiF

Charge on Li = +1

Charge on F = -1

F=-k \frac{(+1)\times (-1)}{r^2}=\frac{1k}{r^2}

In case of AlN

Charge on Al = +3

Charge on N = -3

F=-k \frac{(+3)\times (-3)}{r^2}=\frac{9k}{r^2}

In case of RbF

Charge on Rb = +1

Charge on F = -1

F=-k \frac{(+1)\times (-1)}{r^2}=\frac{1k}{r^2}

In case of CaS

Charge on Ca = +2

Charge on S = -2

F=-k \frac{(+2)\times (-2)}{r^2}=\frac{4k}{r^2}

As magnitude of electrostatic force is highest in AlN, therefor, it has highest melting point.
