Which of the following values best classifies a bond between 2 atoms as being ionic?

Chemistry

Kobotan [32]3 years ago

Answer is: A. An electronegativity difference of greater than 1.7 between the atoms.

Electronegativity (χ) is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.

For example, in ionic salt sodium fluoride (NaF), fluorine has electronegativity approximately χ = 4 and sodium χ = 1 (Δχ = 4 - 1; Δχ = 3), fluorine attracts electron and it has negative charge and sodium has positive charge.

The general rule followed is that if electronegativity difference is greater than 2, then it is considered an ionic bond. An ionic bond is a type of bond characterizing a transfer of electrons within a bond. Common examples are salts which adds that ionic bonds are common between a metal and a nonmetal. Therefore, the best answer from above is letter B.

A students drawing of a nitrogen atom is shown. What change would make the model more accurate?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

C - show 7 neutrons in the nucleus

Explanation:

Use process of elimination:

-Answer A will not work because electrons are not in the nucleus.

-Answer B will change the atom's identity from nitrogen to fluorine; it will not work.

-Answer D will create a nitrogen ion, which is not what the prompt is asking for (an atom); it will not work.

The only logical answer is C, as that is the only one that is also true.

What is an Atomic structure ?
Margaret [11]

Answer: The structure of an atom, theoretically consisting of a positively charged nucleus surrounded and neutralized by negatively charged electrons revolving in orbits at varying distances from the nucleus, the constitution of the nucleus and the arrangement of the electrons differing with various chemical elements.
