What is the best reason for the difference in properties of licl and c6h14o? licl and c6h14o have different atomic masses. cl and o belong to different groups of the periodic table. one compound is ionic, and the other is metallic. one compound is covalent, and the other is ionic. mark this and return save and exit

One compound is covalent, and the other is ionic.

hope this

explanation:

covalent bonds

consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms to fixed orientation and requre high energies to break them

ionic bonds

when two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity, then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. this results in a positively charged ion(cation) and a negatively charged ion (anion)

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z
