For the first one, you have to find one that has both a metal and a nonmetal in it, plus potassium. Bonds between nonmetals are called covalent because they share electrons and a bond between a metal and a nonmetal is an ionic bond because they exchange electrons.
Potassium chloride is KCl. Only an ionic bond.
Potassium hydride is KH. Only an ionic bond.
Potassium nitrate is KNO3. There we go, that has a covalent bond between the nitrogen and oxygen, and an ionic bond between potassium and the nitrogen and oxygen.
For the second one, potassium chloride is the answer because the other three also have covalent bonds. Chloride is the only one that isn't a compound.
I don’t understand the question sorry
Answer:
B
DUH
The nucleus is made up of the protons (which have a positive charge) and neutrons and surrounded by a cloud of electrons ( which have a negative charge ).
Answer: Group 1 would have the lowest electronegativity values.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons. It is also synonymous with the oxidizing ability or non-metallic character of elements.
Generally, across a given period from left to right, electronegativity increases due to increasing nuclear charge and decreasing atomic radius ( or atomic size ). This is because there is a greater tendency for a smaller atom with higher nuclear attraction to attract electrons than a larger atom with a lower nuclear attraction due to the shielding effect of the nuclear attraction by the inner shell electrons on the outermost electrons in the larger atom.
Also, down a particular group, electronegativity generally decreases due to increasing atomic radius/size.
This is why metals are generally electropositive ( lose electrons ) and non-metals are electronegative ( gain electrons ) as they are both found more on the left and right sides of the periodic table respectively.
