HI has a polar covalent bond. All of the other molecules listed are diatomic molecules of a single element, so the bonds in each of these are pure covalent.

Potassium selenide is formed from the K+ cation and the Se2− anion. What is the correct formula for this compound?

K2Se An ionic compound must be electrically neutral, so it must have the same number of positive and negative charges. Two potassium ions, each with a charge of 1+, would give us two positive charges, while one selenide ion, with a charge of 2−, would give us two negative charges. Therefore, the formula is two potassium ions to one selenide ion: K2Se.

SO2 is a covalent compound.

Which element will NOT commonly form a 3− anion? Select the correct answer below: Sc As Sb P

One titanium ion, with a charge of 4+, would give us four positive charges, while two oxide ions, each with a charge of 2−, would give us four negative charges. Therefore, the formula is one titanium ion to two oxide ions: TiO2.

What is the name of SnO2?

tin (IV) oxide SnO2 is an ionic compound with a tin cation and the oxide anion. Tin can have multiple charges, so the name must indicate the charge with a roman numeral. To find the charge on the tin cation, use the fact that oxide has a charge of −2. There are two oxide anions, so the charge on the tin cation must be +4 in order to give a neutral charge overall. 1(+4)+2(−2)=0.

Elements in the same group have the same number of __________.

valence electrons

How many bonds would nitrogen need to form to obtain an octet?

3 Nitrogen would need 3 bonds to form an octet because it already has 5 electrons.

4 Each covalent bond contains two electrons, so a double bond contains four electrons.

Which is NOT a typical cation of chromium? 2+ 3+ 5+ 6+

5+ Most transition metals will readily form 2+ and 3+ ions. The electron configuration for neutral chromium is 1s22s22p63s23p64s13d5. Chromium is a d-block transition metal, and so the valence electrons are removed from the ssubshell before they are removed from the d subshell. Therefore, Chromium would lose its one s electron first and a delectron to form Cr2+, which is only stable in the absence of air. Chromium can lose two more d electrons to become Cr3+, which is the most stable oxidation state for chromium. Chromium can also lose all the remaining valence electrons to become Cr6+. Chromium is seen in this oxidation state in chromium(VI) sulfide Cr2S3.

7 Chlorine has seven valence electrons, so its Lewis symbol will have seven dots.

Which of the following is a characteristic of ionic solids? Select the correct answer below: Their ionic bonds are very strong Ionic solids are poor conductors of electricity Ionic solids dissolve easily in water All of the above

All of the above The properties of ionic compounds shed some light on the nature of ionic bonds. Ionic solids exhibit a crystalline structure and tend to be rigid and brittle; they also tend to have high melting and boiling points, which suggests that ionic bonds are very strong. Ionic solids are also poor conductors of electricity for the same reason. Most ionic solids, however, dissolve readily in water.

Ions may consist of __________.

Ions can be either monoatomic, consisting of one atom, or polyatomic, consisting of multiple atoms. There is no specific limit to the number of atoms in an ion.

Mg3N2 consists of __________.

Mg2+ and N3− ions From the periodic table, we know that magnesium will form 2+ ions, and nitrogen will form 3− ions. The two will, therefore, come together in a 3:2 ratio to form a neutral compound.

Magnesium fluoride is formed from the Mg2+ cation and the F− anion. What is the correct formula for this compound?

MgF2 An ionic compound must be electrically neutral, so it must have the same number of positive and negative charges. One magnesium ion, with a charge of 2+, would give us two positive charges, while two fluoride ions, each with a charge of 1−, would give us two negative charges. Therefore, the formula is one magnesium ion to two fluoride ions: MgF2.

Manganese oxide is formed from Mn5+ cations and O2− anions. What will be its chemical formula?

Mn2O5 An ionic compound must be electrically neutral, so it must have the same number of positive and negative charges. Two manganese cations, each with a charge of 5+, would give us ten positive charges, while five oxygen anions, each with a charge of 2−, would give us ten negative charges. Therefore, the formula would be Mn2O5.

Na2CrO4 Step 1: Identify the symbol of the cation.Result of this step = Na+. Step 2: Identify the formula of the anion.Result of this step = CrO2−4. Step 3: Use the minimum number of cations and anions needed to make the sum of all charges in the formula equal to zero.Result of this step = Na+ has a 1+ charge and CrO2−4 has a 2− charge, which do NOT equate to zero. In order to balance the charges, you need 2 Na+ for every one CrO2−4. The resulting formula of this compound is Na2CrO4.

Which of the following is NOT a covalent compound? CO2 Na2O H2O NH3

Na2O Sodium is a metal and oxygen is a nonmetal, so this will be an ionic compound.

They are generally solids.

What is the abbreviated electron configuration of Mn2+?

[Ar]3d5 The abbreviated electron configuration of Mn is [Ar]4s23d5. Because Mn is a d-block transition metal, the electrons of the s subshell are removed before the (n−1)d electrons. Thus the abbreviated electron configuration for Mn2+ is [Ar]3d5.

What is the electron configuration of As3−?

[Ar]4s23d104p6 The electron configuration of As3− would be 3 more electrons than the original configuration of As. Therefore, the electron configuration of As3− is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p6. Alternatively, this can be written as [Ar]4s23d104p6 or [Kr].
