Question

1. An unknown liquid is added to a beaker of water. After a few minutes you discover that unknown liquid is floating on top of the water in a separate layer.

Explain what type of compound the unknown liquid is, and how you know?

2. Classify each bond as ionic, nonpolar covalent, or polar covalent.

**Classify each bond as ionic, nonpolar covalent, or polar covalent.**

- K and O [ ]
- Li and F [ ]
- C and H [ ]
- N and N [ ]
- Cl and F [ ]

Options:
- Ionic
- Polar Covalent
- Nonpolar Covalent

*Instructions: Select the appropriate bond type for each pair of elements from the options provided.*

Expert Solution
Step 1

Ionic bonds are mainly formed by 's' block elements and 'p' block elements.

Covalent bonds are formed by mutual sharing of electrons.

If the 2 atoms are same, it will be nonpolar covalent bond.

And if the 2 atoms are different, it will produce a dipole moments. Hence produce polar covalent bond.
