consider the following element combinations. classify the bonds formed between each pair as ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent qualitatively based solely on each element's position on the periodic table. do not conduct calculations.

Answer :

Using the elements' positions on the periodic table is a general tool to predict probable bond type.  The exact prediction of bond type can be made using electronegativity values.

Is s and F ionic or covalent?

The bond between S and F is polar covalent. The electronegativity of S is 2.58 while the electronegativity of F is 3.98. The electronegativity difference between the two atoms is 1.40. When the electronegativity difference is between 0.5 to 1.6, we can say that, the bond formed between the two atoms as polar covalent.

Which of the following elements would form a non polar covalent bond?

Cl and Cl. A non-polar covalent bond , where the two atoms sharing electrons have very similar electronegativities so that the electrons are equally shared.
