Take a look at their electronegativity values for this one. Electronegativity is the relative attraction  that a atom in a molecule has for the shared pair of electrons in a covalent bond<span>. Salt is Sodium Chloride which is NaCl. Na has an electronegativity value of 0.93. Cl has an electronegativity value of 3.16. The difference between the two is 2.23. This is much higher than 1.7 (a pure covalent bond e.g. Oxygen-Oxygen bond O2) therefore it is a highly ionic compound. If this was less than 1.7 it would be a polar covalent molecule. </span>

What role does the wire play in voltaic cell?
Triss [41]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a) It allows electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell in which a spontaneous chemical reaction produces the flow of electrons</u></em>.
  • Electrons are produced by the oxidation reaction occurring at the anode. Electrons flow through the conducting wire from the anode to the cathode. At the cathode these electrons are used to reduce copper(II) ions to copper atoms.
  • <em><u>A conducting wire or a wire play connects the two electrodes allowing electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode</u></em>.
