Can someone look at this and tell me if they are correct?

1. Determine the electronegativity between the atoms of each molecule. CO2 = 1.0 H2O = 0.8 NH3 = 3.1 CH4 = 5.9 2. Identify the bond as either ionic or covalent. CO2 = Covalent H2O = Covalent NH3 = Ionic CH4 = Ionic 3. State whether the molecule is polar or non polar. CO2 = Non Polar H2O = Polar NH3 = Polar CH4 = Non Polar 4. Identify the structure as having hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole moments or London dispersion forces (LDF). CO2 = LDF H2O = hydrogen bond NH3 = hydrogen bond CH4 = dipole-dipole

2. nope, they're all covalent, ionic is between a metal and a non-metal, eg. KCl, MgBr2, etc 3. all good 4. good except CH4, which is conflicting with your previous answer because you said "non-polar" and only polar molecules have dipoles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here you go - NH3 and CH4 electronegativity values - NH3 and CH4 are not ionic - CH4 is not dipole-dipole
