Answer is: hydrogen and chlorine.

Covalent bond is bond between nonmetals. Hydrogen (H) and chlorine (Cl) are nonmetals.

Hydrogen and chlorine will form hydrogen chlorine in chemical reaction:

H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g).

Other pairs will form ionic bonds, because one pair is metal (sodium, copper and zinc) and another pair is nonmetal (chlorine and bromine).

Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions).

You would know that the variable is quantitative if it shows any number to express the quantity. For example, quantitative variables are 50°C, 5 atm, 2 moles, 100 L and so on. A variable is qualitative if it expresses a relative quantity but not expressing a number. Examples would be: few, too hot, several, or even describing the characteristics of a variable. Hence, when the variable is in grams, then that would be quantitative.

Answer:

49.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's first take account of what we have and convert them into the correct units.

Volume= 236 mL x ( $\frac{1 L}{1000 mL}$ ) = .236 L
