Which one of the following compounds is not covalent?

Chemistry
2 answers:

Answer:

KCl

Explanation:

Hello,

Potassium chloride is well-known as an ionic compound owing to the shown-below greater-than-1.7 difference between the electronegativities of potassium and chlorine:

\Delta E=E_{Cl}-E_K=3.16-0.82\\\Delta E=2.34

This is by cause of the fact that such compounds that have a difference in the constituent elements' electronegativities greater than 1.7 are considered as ionic.

Best regards.

KCI is not a covalent compound, it is an ionic compound. 
A covalent compound is one in which each of the atoms involved contribute a specific number of electrons for sharing in order to from stable compound while an ionic compound is a compound formed when one atom donates electron to the other atom in the compound, in order to attain stability.  The compounds given in options A, B and D shared electrons while in KCl, potassium donates an electron to chlorine.

_AgNO3 + _<br> Cu → _<br> Cu(NO3)2 + -<br> Ag
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

2AgNO3 + Cu = Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

Explanation:

First you see which side has the most elements. Which is Cu(NO3)2 + Ag. But, both sides have the same elements? But, on the reactants side, there is 2 of NO3. On the products side there is only one.

Reactants:            Products:

Cu = 1                    Cu = 1

NO3 = 1                 NO3 = 2

Ag = 1                    Ag = 1

They are all equal, except for NO3. So on the reactants side, you add a two to make it even.

2AgNO3 + Cu = Cu(NO3)2 + Ag

Reactants:            Products:

Cu = 1                    Cu = 1

NO3 = 2                NO3 = 2

Ag = 2                   Ag = 1

Now, the NO3 is equal, But the Ag isn't. But, you can add a 2 on the <u>products</u> side so the whole equation becomes equal.

2AgNO3 + Cu = Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

Reactants:            Products:

Cu = 1                    Cu = 1

NO3 = 2                NO3 = 2

Ag = 2                   Ag = 2

14. As the moles of salt added are increased, what<br> happens to the melting point of the water?
Vika [28.1K]
Salt lowers the freezing/melting point of water, so in both cases the idea is to take advantage of the lower melting point. Ice forms when the temperature of water reaches 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
