chlorine has the atomic mass of 35.5 and is a non metal in the halogen family
To cut this short and for your understanding, ionic bond is formed between metals (mostly right column in periodic table). Covalent bond is formed between non-metals (mostly left column in periodic table). So polar covalent is also a covalent bond but it is polar, which means the shape of molecules are not symmetrical hence maybe an atom in a molecule has most of the electron attracted to it causing itself to be partial negative (since electron are negatively charged) and the other atom has its electron being attracted by others became partial positive. Polar covalent can also be when H atom is binding either to F, O or N (also known as hydrogen bond).
What is likely to occur if sulfur forms an ionic bond with another element is <u>sulfur will accept electrons</u>
<u><em> explanation</em></u>
- Ionic bond is formed when a metal react with a non metal.
- Metal loses ( donate) electrons to form cation ( a positively charged ion) , while non metal accept (gain) electrons to form anion ( a negatively charged ion ).
- Sulfur is a non metal therefore it accept electrons if it form an ionic bond with a metal. sulfur accept 2 electrons to form S2- ion
