fering from numerous stomach ailments and are showing signs of long-term kidney damage. The residents of the next town, down river from the first town, seem to be unaffected. Water quality tests in the river by the second town show two types of heavy metals at acceptable legal limits in the water. One of the metals is the same as the one in the first town. What can scientists infer about the possible reason for the illnesses appearing in the first town but not the second?
One metal causes an acute effect, compared to the other.
One metal causes a chronic effect, compared to the other.
The heavy metals have a synergistic relationship when combined.
The heavy metals have an antagonistic relationship when combined.

How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Atoms must have similar electronegativities in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is one of the bondings that occurs between the atoms of elements. It is the bonding in which atoms share their valence electrons with one another. However, the ELECTRONEGATIVITY, which is the ability of an atom to be attracted to electrons play a major role in the formation of covalent bonds.

When atoms of different electronegativities combine, the more electronegative atom pulls more electrons towards itself, hence, an IONIC bond is formed. However, when the electronegativities of the atoms are similar, the sharing of their electrons becomes stronger. Hence, ATOMS MUST HAVE SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITIES in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.
