Answer:
The correct answer is B) electronegativities of the bonded atoms in a molecule of the compound .
Explanation:
When two atoms forming a bond differ in their electronegativities at that time bond polarity is generated
In simple words a bond will be polar when the bonding electrons are not equally shared by two atoms.As a result the atom attract the bonding electron pair towards itself gain partial negative charge and the other atom gains partial positive charge.
For HCl is a polar compound because H and Cl atom differ in their electronegativities,as a result the bonding electron pair is not shared equally by H and Cl atoms.
Answer:
- Carbon shares four of its electrons, and each oxygen shares two of its electrons.
Explanation:
Carbon needs 4 electrons to reach a full outer shell while oxygen needs 2 to reach a full outer shell.
Answer: Oxygen.
Explanation: The -ate is used for the ion that has the largest number of Oxygen atoms. The -ite would be used for the ion with the smaller amount of oxygen atoms.
Answer is (2) - hydrogen carbonate
<em>Explanation:</em>
NaHCO₃ is an ionic compound which is made from Na⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions. The decomposition is
NaHCO₃ → Na⁺ + HCO₃⁻
Among the resulted ions, Na⁺ is a monatomic ion while HCO₃⁻ is a polyatomic ion.
<em>Polyatomic ions mean ions which are made of two or more different atoms.</em>
HCO₃⁻ is made from 3 atoms as H, C and O. The name of HCO₃⁻ ion is bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate.
