Ionic

Question 12

Which of the following molecules will have a dipole moment?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{CO}$$

Question 13

A chemist mixes $$\mathrm{H}_2$$ and $$\mathrm{Cl}_2$$ gases. Which product will have a polar covalent bond?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{HCl}$$

Question 14

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about electronegativity?

Accepted Answer

Electronegativity is highest for metals.

Question 15

A bond between $$\mathrm{C}$$ ($$2.5) $$and $$\mathrm{O}$$ ($$3.5) $$has an electronegativity difference of $$1.0. $$What type of bond is this?

Accepted Answer

Polar covalent

Question 16

Which of the following best describes the electron distribution in a nonpolar covalent bond?

Accepted Answer

Electrons are shared equally or almost equally between atoms.

Question 17

A student claims that a bond with an electronegativity difference of $$0.3 is $$polar covalent. Is this correct?

Accepted Answer

No, because the difference is too small; it is nonpolar covalent.

Question 18

Which of the following bonds would be expected to have the smallest dipole moment?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{N}$$

Question 19

A scientist is designing a drug molecule and wants to include a region with high polarity. Which bond should they incorporate?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{Cl}$$

Question 20

Which of the following is a correct application of electronegativity difference to predict bond type?

Accepted Answer

A bond with a difference of $$2.2$$ between a metal and a nonmetal is ionic.
