Answer:

The answer to your question is Ionic bonding.

Explanation:

There are three main types of bonding:

- Ionic bonding is when a metal attaches to a nonmetal and the electronegativity is higher than 1.7.

- Covalent bonding is when a non metal attaches to another non metal. and the electronegativity is between 0 and 1.7.

- Metallic bonding is a bond between metals.

In this question, we have      Lithium plus fluorine

Formula                                               LiF    

In this compound there a metal and a nonmetal

Electronegativity    Fluorine = 3.98     Lithium = 0.98

Difference of electronegativity =  3.98 - 0.98 = 3.0

                                             3.0 > 1.7

Then we conclude that the bond is Ionic.

Balance the following chemical equation, then answer the following question.
julsineya [31]
Molar mass:

O2 = 31.99 g/mol
C8H18 = 144.22 g/mol

<span>2 C8H18(g) + 25 O2(g) = 16 CO2(g) + 18 H2O(g)

2 x 144.22 g --------------- 25 x 31.99 g
10.0 g ----------------------?? ( mass of O2)

10.0 x 25 x 31.99 / 2 x 144.22 =

7997.5 / 288.44 => 27.72 g of O2

hope this helps!
