Answer:

The properties of a solid are that they form at a low temperature, particles have long range order meaning that the particles are fixed in place, the particles have a defined shape and volume, the solid particles are a low-energy state of matter, and solid particles are dense and incompressible. But on the other hand plasma particles form at high temperatures, plasma particles have short range order meaning that the plasma particles have little interaction, plasma particles fill all available space meaning plasma particles have no fixed shape or volume, plasma particles are the highest energy-state of matter, plasma particles are highly compressible, and plasma particles conduct electricity extremely well.

Negative ions are usually formed from: metals nonmetals

Lelechka [254]

Non metals are electronegative in nature whereas metals are electropositive. A non-metal accepts electron and gains negative charge whereas metals lose eletrons and gains positive charge. Hence correct answer is non-metals. Hope this helps!

The compound IF5 contains Question 16 options: polar covalent bonds with partial negative charges on the F atoms. ionic bonds. p

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecule IF5 possesses five I-F polar bonds. However, the presence of polar bonds does not automatically imply that the molecule will be polar.

The geometry of the molecule is very important in determining the polarity of a compound. Since IF5 has a lone pair of electrons, the molecule is bent and as such there is a permanent dipole moment created in the molecule thereby making IF5 polar in nature.
