Homeschooled and in need of some help... Which of the following pairs of atoms do NOT exhibit an ionic bond?Answer N and H Li and Br O and Mg F and Cu and Explain the relationship between sugars (glucose) and starches (carbohydrates). Use the terms, monomer and polymer, in your explanation.

thomaster (thomaster):

I already answered the first part. You can edit the question to cut that part out :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one is a different question but the same idea unfortunately

thomaster (thomaster):

Yes just look in the periodic table which are metals and which are non metals Metal + nonmetal = ionic Nonmetal + nonmetal = covalent http://ptable.com

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So N and H because neither are metals??

thomaster (thomaster):

correct :) that would be a covalent bond

thomaster (thomaster):

And the second question: Both starch and glucose are carbohydrates. this means that they both consist of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

The sugars are monomers which cannot be hydrolyzed further where as the starch can be hydrolyzed of glucose monomer. Hence Starch is polymer made up of combination of glucose monomers.
