Ionic compounds are compounds composed of ions, charged particles that form when an atom (or group of atoms) gains or loses electrons. (A cation is a positively charged ion; an anion is a negatively charged ion.) Covalent or molecular compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules.

Hope this helps

What intermolecular force(s) is/are present in solid SO3?
guapka [62]

Answer:

1. London dispersion

Explanation:

Sulphur trioxide ( SO₃ ) -

The chemical compound SO₃ is planar in structure , the only intermolecular forces shown by SO₃ is the London forces .

dipole - dipole is not observed in this compound , as it is not possible to generate poles between the sulfur and oxygen atom due to very less difference in the electronegativity .

Hydrogen bonding is also not observed , because there is not hydrogen atom .

Hence , only London forces are observed in SO₃ .

Select the correct answer.
Serjik [45]

Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.

In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K  and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻

Ans E) potassium and bromine
