Answer:

phosphorus - least similar to barium

beryllium - most similar to barium

Explanation:

The formula of the chloride formed between barium and chlorine is BaCl2.

Barium is a metallic element and has the valency of +2. Beryllium is also a group two metal with a valency of +2. Hence the compound formed between beryllium and chlorine is BeCl2

Phosphorus is a nonmetal and forms a completely different chloride from BaCl2. The chloride of phosphorus is PCl5 and PCl3. These are least similar to BaCl2

What kinds of elements form an ionic bond?
Vanyuwa [196]
Ionic bonds usually occur between metal and nonmetal ions. For example, sodium (Na), a metal, and chloride (Cl), a nonmetal, form an ionic bond to make NaCl. In a covalent bond, the atoms bond by sharing electrons. Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals.

Which of the following is necessarily characterized by a covalent linkage?a. Base-pairing interactionb. Disulfide bondc. Hydroge
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

b. Disulfide bond

Explanation:

Covalent linkage or bonding is a type of bond in which electrons are shared between atoms in a compound or molecule. Each atom contributes to the shared electron.

This is the case of disulfide bonding i.e. S-S, in which two thiol groups (-SH) share electrons with one another. The process of oxidation between two cysteine (amino acid) molecules forms this bond. Hence, Disulfide bond is characterized by a covalent linkage.
