The answer would be b, or 2
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
Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent
Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic
For Be and F,
E.N of Fluorine = 3.98
E.N of Beryllium = 1.57
________
E.N Difference 2.41 (Ionic Bond)
For H and Cl,
E.N of Chorine = 3.16
E.N of Hydrogen = 2.20
________
E.N Difference 0.96 (Polar Covalent Bond)
For Na and O,
E.N of Oxygen = 3.44
E.N of Sodium = 0.93
________
E.N Difference 2.51 (Ionic Bond)
For F and F,
E.N of Fluorine = 3.98
E.N of Fluorine = 3.98
________
E.N Difference 0.00 (Non-Polar Covalent Bond)
Result:
A polar covalent bond is formed between Hydrogen and Chlorine atoms.
Answer:
Some bacteria like <em><u>rhizobium</u></em> and <u><em>blue green algae</em></u> are able to fix nitrogen gas from the atmosphere to enrich the soil with nitrogen compounds and increase its fertility. The nitrogen-fixing bacteria and blue green algae are called <u><em>biological nitrogen fixers.</em></u>
The answer is Hydrogen
This is what happens when acids react with metals
