On the basis of electronegativity, which of these pairs of elements is most likely to form polyatomic ions?

Chemistry

Vinvika [58]2 years ago
7 0
Correct Answer: <span>O and P

Reason: 
The nature of bond depends on the electronegativity difference of constituent atoms. If difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms is more, it will result in ionic bonding. Alternatively, if difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms is less, it will prefer covalent bonding. Further,  covalently bonded </span><span>elements are most likely to form polyatomic ions.

In present case, electronegativity difference of O and P is minimum. Hence, they </span><span>are most likely to form polyatomic ions.</span>

How many grams in 6.20 x 10^25 atoms of bromine (Br) ? image attached , will give brainliest
Deffense [45]

Answer:

8239.2g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of atoms in Br  = 6.2 x 10²⁵atoms

Unknown:

Mass of Br = ?

Solution:

From mole concepts, we know that:

       1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms/mol

 Molar mass of Br  = 80g/mol

6.2 x 10²⁵atoms  x \frac{1}{6.02 x 10^{23} } \frac{mol}{atoms} x  80 x \frac{g}{moles}  

          = 8239.2g
