Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent

Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent

Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

For N₂,

E.N of Nitrogen = 3.04

E.N Difference 0.00 (Non Polar Covalent)

For Na₂O,

E.N of Oxygen = 3.44

E.N of Sodium = 0.93

E.N Difference 2.51 (Ionic)

For CO₂,

E.N of Oxygen = 3.44

E.N of Carbon = 2.55

E.N Difference 0.89 (Polar Covalent)

Answer from: Quest

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

explanation

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the $3d$ have energy higher than those in the $4 s$ orbital while lower than those of the $4 p$ orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the $4s$ orbital is therefore filled right after $3p$ orbitals and before $3 d$ orbitals.

potassium has electron configuration $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{1}$ and calcium $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{2}$ . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{2} \; 3d^{1}$ and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the $ns^{2} \; (n-1) p^{1}$ and should be highlighted as well.

Which statement describes the appearance of a temperature-vs.-time graph? a horizontal line shows that the temperature increases at a constant rate over time. a vertical line shows that the temperature decreases at a constant rate over time. horizontal lines where the temperature is constant during phase changes connect upward-sloping lines where the temperature increases. horizontal lines where the temperature increases are connected by upward-sloping lines where the temperature is constant for each phase.

Two people each hold the end of a rope and create waves by moving their arms up and down. this wave is best classified as a transverse wave because a) both the rope particles and the wave are moving in the same direction. b) the wave is moving up and down as the particles of the rope move horizontally. c) the wave is moving horizontally as the particles of the rope move up and down. eliminate d) the wave is moving in a parallel direction with the motion of the person's arms.
