23. Bonding atoms that experience large differences in electronegativity values will experience what type of bond? hydrogen sharing of electrons ionic covalent

OpenStudy (somy):

u would see large difference in electronegativity if the bond was between metal and non metal i believe

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Answer this question according to this http://openstudy.com/updates/53ba5410e4b09f140ca6f6cd

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

ionic!

OpenStudy (abhisar):

BINGO ! For ionic elecronegativity difference is largest i.e >2

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Got it ? For example NaCl. Can u find the electronegativity difference in it ?

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

i don't know how:(

OpenStudy (abhisar):

What is the electronegativity of Na and Cl ?

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

Na: .93 CI: .3.16

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Now simple find the difference.

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

2.23

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Is it greater than 2.0 ?

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

yes

OpenStudy (abhisar):

So it will be ionic and we know that NaCl is ionic.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

So compounds with large electronegativity difference (>2.0) are ionic.

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

yeah, okay. Thanksss
