Answer : The correct name of the compound HF is hydrogen fluoride.

Explanation :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

The nomenclature of covalent compound is given by:

1. The less electronegative element is written first.

2. The more electronegative element is written then, and a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on..

HF is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between hydrogen and fluorine. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

So, the name of the compound HF is hydrogen fluoride.

Answer:

A.A gas exerts pressure on the walls of the container. Reason: They have high kinetic energy and negligible force of attraction to move constantly moving with high speed in all directions. ... These collisions of the gas particles with the container walls exert pressure on the walls of the container.

B A gas exerts pressure on the walls of the container due to imapact of its gas molecules with hight velocity .

C.A wooden table should be called a solid. Reason: It has a definite shape and volume. It is very rigid and cannot be compressed, i.e., it has a solid characteristic.

D.We can easily move our hand in air but to do the same through a solid block of wood we need a karate expert. It is because the molecules of air has less force of attraction between them and a very small external force can separate them and pass through it.
