NGSS.HS-PS1-2

Use your knowledge and electronegativity sheet to predict what type of bond would form between phosphorus and fluorine.

• non-polar covalent

• polar covalent

• ionic

• metallic

In a polar covalent bond, electrons are shared:

• equally

• unequally

• between two metals

• between a metal and a non-metal

Electronegativity is a measurement of the ability of a nucleus to:

• attract bonding electrons

• attract other nuclei

• attract electrons in the non-valence energy levels

The most electronegative atom in the periodic table is:

• Fluorine
• Helium
• Neon
• Francium

In this Lewis structure, the symbol above F means...

• electrons are being transferred to Fluorine
• electrons are less attracted to F than H
• electrons are more attracted to F than H
• Fluorine has formed a cation
