QUESTION:
Arrange the following bonds in order of increasing ionic character: carbon to hydrogen, fluorine to hydrogen, bromine to hydrogen, sodium to chlorine, potassium to fluorine, lithium to chlorine.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
The ionic character of the bond is the polarity. The ionic character is formed by the difference in electronegativity of the atoms in the bond. The larger electronegativity difference causes the bond to be more ionic in nature.
