D represents ion-dipole forces that are stronger than the force C.

Explanation:

D represents the ion-dipole force.

C represents the H-bonding forces.

ion-dipole force is a force that is due to electrostatic attraction and has a dipole between an ion and a neutral molecule.

It is electrostatic in nature.

A hydrogen bond is the force between the hydrogen with the electro negative atom of one molecule, to electro negative atom of some other molecule. such as: O, F, N

Ion dipole force is stronger than the H-bonding.

Makovka662 [10]

The empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$

<h3>Empirical formula </h3>

To calculate the empirical formula of a compound, the value of moles of each element is needed.

As we have the information of the mass value, we will use the molar mass expression, which corresponds to:

$MM_O = 16g/mol\\MM_Fe = 55.8g/mol$

$MM = \frac{m}{mol}$

$16 = \frac{4.8}{x}$

$x = 0.3mol$

$55.8=\frac{11.2}{x}\\x = 0.2$

As the value of the empirical formula must be an integer, simply multiply the two values by a common factor:

$O = 0.3 \times 10 = 3\\Fe = 0.2 \times 10 = 2$

$Fe_2O_3$

So, the empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$ .

Which type of bonding involves the complete transfer of a valence electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electroneg

Ivan

Answer:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds

Explanation:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds are interatomic or intramolecular bonds which are formed between two kinds of atoms having a large electronegativity difference usually 2.1.

Electronegativity is the property that combines the ability of an atom to gain or lose electrons. It is expressed as the tendency with which atoms of elements attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

In this bond type, a metal transfers its electrons to a more electronegative atom which is a non-metal.
