The sewage dumps were toxic so it would effect the air and cause many help issues especially with lungs.
Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the
difference in electronegativity.
If, Electronegativity difference is,
Less
than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bond
Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bond
Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic
For Br₂;
E.N of Bromine = 2.96
E.N of Bromine = 2.96
________
E.N Difference
0.00 (Non Polar Covalent Bond)
For MgS;
E.N of Sulfur = 2.58
E.N of Magnesium = 1.31
________
E.N Difference 1.27 (Ionic Bond)
For SO₂;
E.N of Oxygen = 3.44
E.N of Sulfur = 2.58
________
E.N Difference 0.86 (Polar Covalent Bond)
For KF;
E.N of Fluorine = 3.98
E.N of Potassium = 0.82
________
E.N Difference 3.16 (Ionic Bond)
Result: The Bonds in Br₂ and SO₂ are Covalent in Nature.
By itself, i don’t think so.
though, paired with a hydrogen bond, it is.
If i’m wrong, please feel free to let me know :)
