Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the
difference in electronegativity.
If, Electronegativity difference is,
Less
than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bond
Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bond
Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic
For Br₂;
E.N of Bromine = 2.96
E.N of Bromine = 2.96
________
E.N Difference
0.00 (Non Polar Covalent Bond)
For MgS;
E.N of Sulfur = 2.58
E.N of Magnesium = 1.31
________
E.N Difference 1.27 (Ionic Bond)
For SO₂;
E.N of Oxygen = 3.44
E.N of Sulfur = 2.58
________
E.N Difference 0.86 (Polar Covalent Bond)
For KF;
E.N of Fluorine = 3.98
E.N of Potassium = 0.82
________
E.N Difference 3.16 (Ionic Bond)
Result: The Bonds in Br₂ and SO₂ are Covalent in Nature.
Answer:
The electric force between them decreases
Explanation:
The force between two charged particle is given by :
Where
r is the distance between charges
If the distance between the charges is increased, the electric force gets decreased as there is an inverse relation between force and distance.
Hence, the correct option is (c) "The electric force between them decreases"
4. The pressure of the inner core is higher than the outer core
5. The coolest layers are farthest from the core
