Bonding Quiz - Honors

What is a polar covalent bond?

• A bond where electrons are shared equally between atoms.

• A bond that involves the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

• A type of bond where electrons are shared unequally between atoms.

• A bond that occurs only in ionic compounds.

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

• Ionic bonds involve the sharing of electrons, while covalent bonds involve the transfer of electrons.

• Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons.

• Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds in all cases.

• Covalent bonds can only occur between nonmetals.

What type of bond is formed by sulfur (S) and bromine (Br) using electronegativities?

• Ionic bond

• Polar covalent bond

• Non-polar covalent bond

• Metallic bond

What is electronegativity?

• The ability of an atom to attract electrons in a chemical bond.

• The measure of an atom's size in a molecule.

• The tendency of an atom to lose electrons easily.

• The energy required to remove an electron from an atom.

What is the significance of the periodic table in bonding?

• It helps predict the types of bonds that can form based on the elements' positions and their electronegativities.

• It provides a list of all known elements without any relation to bonding.

• It shows the atomic mass of each element, which is crucial for bonding.

• It categorizes elements based on their color and physical appearance.

What is the octet rule?

• Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of eight electrons.

• Atoms always have eight electrons in their outer shell regardless of their bonding.

• The octet rule applies only to noble gases and not to other elements.

• Atoms can only lose electrons to achieve a full outer shell.

What is the formula for calculating the charge of an ion?

• Charge = Number of protons - Number of electrons.

• Charge = Number of neutrons - Number of protons.

• Charge = Number of electrons + Number of protons.

• Charge = Number of protons + Number of neutrons.

What is a metallic bond?

• A bond that occurs between non-metal atoms.

• A type of bond that occurs between metal atoms, characterized by a sea of delocalized electrons.

• A bond formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms.

• A bond that occurs only in ionic compounds.

What type of bond is formed between two nonmetals?

• Ionic bond

• Metallic bond

• Covalent bond

• Hydrogen bond

What type of bond is formed between lithium and chlorine?

• Covalent bond

• Metallic bond

• Ionic bond

• Hydrogen bond
