Chemistry Chapter 6 Quiz 1
False
A bond that is covalent but that has the polarity of an ionic bond is known as a metallic bond.
True
A completely covalent bond forms between two atoms of the same nonmetal (e.g., F2).
False
In the compound potassium iodide, potassium's electronegativity is 0.8, and iodine's is 2.7. In the compound sulfur dichloride, sulfur's electronegativity is 2.6, and chlorine's is 3.2. Therefore, the sulfur dichloride compound is more polar than the potassium iodide compound.
octet
The noble gases each contain a full valence shell of 8 electrons, thus demonstrating the __________________ rule.
ionic bond
When an atom of potassium bonds with an atom of iodine, what type of bond has been formed?
