II. sulfur (S) and carbon (C)
and
III. fluorine (F) and oxygen (O)
will form covalent bonds, so the answer will be:
e. II and III
Explanation:
To know is what type of bond is formed between atoms we need to look at the electronegativity difference between the atoms.
If the electronegativity difference is less than 0.4 there is a nonpolar covalent bond.
If the electronegativity difference is between 0.4 and 1.8 there is a polar covalent bond. (if is a metal involved we consider the bond to be ionic)
If the electronegativity difference is greater then 1.8 there is an ionic bond.
We have the following cases:
I. lithium (Li) and sulfur (S)
electronegativity difference = 2.5 (S) - 1 (Li) = 1.5 but because there is a metal involved the bond will be ionic
II. sulfur (S) and carbon (C)
electronegativity difference = 2.5 (S) - 2.5 (C) = 0 so the bond will be nonpolar covalent
III. fluorine (F) and oxygen (O)
electronegativity difference = 4 (F) - 3.5 (O) = 0.5 so the bond will be polar covalent bond.

Answer: The answer is the second one
Answer:
umm i guess if there is a liquid inside it would rise to the top and the metal would sink to the bottom
