Answer (1)
Breakdown of the Questions:I. Ionic Bonding * Task: Show the transfer of electrons to form ionic bonds in the given compounds. * Compounds: NaF, MgCl, KF, ... (The remaining compounds are not visible in the provided image.)II. Covalent Bonding * Task: Show the sharing of electrons to form covalent bonds in the given compounds. * Compounds: Ammonia (NH3), Water (H2O), Phosphine (PH3), Nitrogen gas (N2), Sulfur dioxide (SO2)III. Polar vs. Nonpolar Covalent Bonding * Task: Determine the type of covalent bond (polar or nonpolar) in the compounds from Part I. * Note: The compounds from Part I are not completely visible in the image.Answering the QuestionsTo provide a comprehensive and accurate answer, I'll need the complete list of compounds from Part I.General Approach:Ionic Bonding: * Identify the electronegativity differences between the atoms in each compound. * The atom with higher electronegativity will gain electrons, while the other will lose them. * Draw Lewis dot structures to visualize the electron transfer.Covalent Bonding: * Determine if the atoms involved have similar electronegativities. * If the electronegativity difference is small, the bond is nonpolar covalent. * If the electronegativity difference is significant, the bond is polar covalent. * Draw Lewis dot structures to visualize the electron sharing.Example (Assuming NaF from Part I):NaF (Ionic Bonding): * Na has a lower electronegativity than F. * Na loses an electron to become Na+. * F gains an electron to become F-. * The resulting ionic compound is NaF.Once you provide the complete list of compounds from Part I, I can provide more specific and detailed answers.
