With the representations of "I" for ionic bond,"PC" for polar covalent bond,and "NP" for nonpolar covalent bond,which of the following descriptive combinations is correct? A)CsF/PC B)F₂/I C)NO/NP D)HCl/PC E)BrCl/NP

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CsF is a compound formed between a metal (Cs) and nonmetal (F), so it is an ionic bond. F₂ refers to sulfur hexafluoride, which is a nonpolar covalent bond. NO is a polar molecule, so it is a polar covalent bond. HCl is also a polar molecule, so it is a polar covalent bond. BrCl is also a polar molecule, so it is a polar covalent bond. Therefore, the only accurate combination is HCl/PC.
