How is electronegativity used in determining the ionic or covalent character of the bonding between two elements?
madam [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.

Consider 10.0 g of helium gas (He) in a rigid steel container. If you add 10.0 g of neon gas (Ne) to this container, which of th
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: (e) The pressure in the container increases but does not double.

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to first remember our gas law, Boyle's law states that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. That is, If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when temperature is held constant. Therefore, increasing the volume in this case does not double the pressure owning to out gas law, but an increase in pressure would be noticed if temperature is constant

Describe a method to calculate the average atomic mass of the sample in the previous question using only the atomic masses of li
alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate their average atomic masses which is otherwise known as the relative atomic mass, we simply multiply the given abundances of the atoms and the given atomic masses.

The abundace is the proportion or percentage or fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature.

This can be expressed below:

        RAM = Σmₙαₙ

where mₙ is the mass of isotope n

           αₙ is the abundance of isotope n

for this problem:

RAM of Li = m₆α₆ + m₇α₇

       m₆ is mass of isotope Li-6

        α₆ is the abundance of isotope Li-6

       m₇ is mass of isotope Li-7

        α₇ is the abundance of isotope Li-7

Select the reason why two molecules of benzaldehyde cannot react via the aldol condensation.
Lesechka [4]
Benzaldehyde or C6H5CHO would not undergo the aldol condensation because it does not contain an alpha-hydrogen in its structure. Aldol condensation is a type of reaction that happens between an enolate and an aldehyde or ketone leading to a alkene that has a planar structure. The lack of an alpha-hydrogen would not allow for it to undergo such process since it cannot enolize. Benzaldehyde undergoes a nucleophilic reaction known as Claisen-Schmidt condensation. It has somehow same mechanism of the aldol reaction however, the nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl happens even without the alpha-hydrogen but with an enolate that is from a ketone.
