Answer:
incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.
Explanation:
A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.
An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as
cation and nitrate
is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
.
is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals nitrogen and oxygen.
Thus
incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.
Answer:
Explanation:
Excess fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides from agricultural lands and residential areas.
Oil, grease and toxic chemicals from urban runoff and energy production.
Sediment from improperly managed construction sites, crop and forest lands, and eroding streambanks.
Without solving for the dipole moment, we can easily determine which among the common gases has the smallest dipole moment just by determining the differences in their electronegativity. The greater the difference in the electronegativity, the higher is the value of the dipole moment.
From the given above, there are obvious differences between the electronegativity between the atoms composing LiF, ClF, and HF. For Cl2, since this is the same molecule then, the difference in the electronegativity is zero.
Answer: Cl2.
The definition for "What do you call two or more atoms bonded together" is a compound. Think of water. Water is called H20. Water is made of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. That is to atoms bonded together to make a compound which is water. Hope I helped
