Hornfels is a metamorphic rock that can form when a rock is subjected to high temperatures (extreme pressure ). Hornfels, which often forms when magma or lava touches other rock, is non foliated. Heat and pressure changes both igneous rocks sedimentary rocks into metamorphic <span>rocks. hope this helps! :)</span>

What is the ranking order of the degree of polarity? Of HF,HCI,HBr and HI
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The ranking order of the degree of polarity is HF>HCl>HBr>HI

Explanation:

The degree of polarity of a compound depends on the nature electronegative atom that it contains.

      Among Fluorine,chlorine,bromine and iodine the electronegativity of fluorine is highest among all the mentioned atoms.

     Due to high electronegativity HF is the most polar than HCl,HBr and HI and the HI have least polarity as its atomic structure is large and electronegativity is lower than fluorine,chlorine and bromine.

What is acid rain? Which fossil fuel causes acid rain? What are the chemical reactions that produce the acid?
Ahat [919]

Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

When we burn the coal that produce sulfur dioxide .

Classify the following compounds as having covalent or ionic bondsa. dinitrogen trioxideb. carbon dioxidec. calcium chlorided. m
yKpoI14uk [10]

Compounds having covalent bonds are dinitrogen trioxide, carbon dioxide.

compounds having ionic bonds are calcium chloride, Magnesium nitride, sodium bromide, aluminum oxide.

Explanation:

When a positive charged cation gets bonded with negative charge anion by transferring its electrons the ionic bonds are formed. It is seen between metals and non-metals.

In covalent bonds the electrons are shared equally between two atoms. It is generally seen bonds between 2 non metals.

Dinitrogen trioxide : It is a covalent compound as bonding between two non metals is there ie nitrogen and oxygen.

In carbon dioxide carbon has four electrons in outermost shell which have strong attraction with nucleus cannot be lost neither it can accommodate 4 electrons to stabilize the valence shell. Thus sharing takes place and its covalent bonding.

In calcium chloride ionic bond is formed because calcium gives 2 electrons to each of the chloride atoms and thus gets 2+ charge on calcium. Sharing of electrons let the octet complete.

Magnesium nitride is formed when Mg loses 2 electrons to complete octet and nitride gains 3 electrons. The electrostatic attraction causes ionic bonding in it.

sodium bromide: Bromine is electronegative i.e electron donor and sodium is highly electrospositive hence sharing of electrons would cause electrostatic attraction between them.

aluminum oxide : The ideal situation of ionic bonds that is between metal and non-metals is present in aluminum oxide.
