I am pretty sure that the statement which is true is A. a molecule having a covalent bond can be ionic. I choose this option because you usually ca see how electons of polyatomic ions are being covalenr and gain or loose ionic electrons in order to accomplish the octet.<span>

The ionization equation is:
HF ⇄ H(+) + F(-)
The ionization constant is Ka = [H(+)] * [H(-)] / [HF]
=> [H(+)] * [F(-)] = Ka * [HF]
Given that Ka < 1
[H(+)] * [F(-)] < [HF]
Which is [HF] > [H(+)] * [F(-)] the option a. fo the list of choices.
From the calculations, the half life of the material is 6.5 days.
<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>
The term radioactivity has to do with the spontaneous disintegration of a specie.
Uisng the formula;
N=Noe^-kt
N= amount at time t = 0.135 Ci or 4.995 ×10^9 Bq
No = amount initially present = 1.75 x 10^12 Bq
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken = 55 days
Hence;
4.995 ×10^9 = 1.75 x 10^12e^-55k
4.995 ×10^9/1.75 x 10^12 = e^-55k
2.85 * 10^-3 = e^-55k
ln2.85 * 10^-3 = -55k
k = ln2.85 * 10^-3/-55
k = 0.1066 day-1
Half life = 0.693/ 0.1066 day-1
= 6.5 days
