Ionic bonds form as a result of the electrostatic attraction between:
Dipoles
Electrons
Ions
Nuclei
A single covalent bond involves the sharing of:
Only one electron
Two electrons
Three electrons
A variable number of electrons which depends on the bonding atoms.
Na and Cl
O and Cl
H and O
Na and O
None of the given answers
K and N
K and S
N and Br
S and Br
None of the given answers
A measure of an atoms ability to attract electrons is:
Electronegativity
Polarization
Ionization
Electron Affinity
Both polarization and ionization
Atoms that are bonded with an electronegativity difference of 0 to 0.3 are generally considered to be:
Negatively charged compounds
Non-polar covalent compounds
Polar covalent compounds
Ionic compounds
Diatomic compounds
What is the apparent charge on the chlorine atom in the HCl molecule?
+1
-1
Atoms seldom exist as independent particles in nature because:
as single particles, most atoms have low potential energy
their electronegativity is much lower when they combine with other atoms
atoms are more stable when they combine with other atoms
neutral particles are very rare.
When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom, they form a bond that is considered to be:
Purely ionic
Partially ionic
Polar-covalent
Nonpolar-covalent
Not a bond
You can estimate the degree to which a bond between two atoms is ionic or covalent by calculating the:
distance between atoms nuclei
difference in the atoms' electronegativities
atoms' atomic radii
number of atoms in the compound
overall atomic mass
