It is a covalent bond. Whenever a compound uses such suffixes like mono, di, tri, tetra, and so on, it is a covalent compound- thus having covalent bonds.

Answer:

It's a covalent bond

Explanation:

The diference of electronegativity between the two atoms bonding can help you to decide if a bond is either covalent or ionic.

As shown in the figure, the oxygen atoms of the nitrate (left) will interact with the nitrogen atom of the thiamine(right).

The oxygen have an electronegativity of 3.5 (one of the most electronegative elements) and the nitrogen a 3.0

Being the difference: 3.5 - 3.0=0.5

Now, how this helps to decide the type of bond? For covalent bonds it's expected to have a electronegativity diffetence of < 1.5. On the other hand, for ionic bonds this value should be > 1.5

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Component having Smallest Atomic Size is 'Helium' having range approx. 31pm

I have seen that numerous individuals are noting with respect to hydrogen Atom however the genuine reason is along a period (left to right) the nuclear number increments while the valence electrons stay in a similar shell. Along these lines because of the expanding atomic charge (pulling electrons closer to the core) the radii of the iotas decline left to right.

Furthermore, as should be obvious from the table, Hydrogen and Helium are in a similar period so Helium having littlest size
