Prior to manufacturing, you realize that Er and Y could form a pass ovation later on the surface of the alloy upon oxidation with Oxygen, with the oxides Er2O3 and Y2O3. There is a concern that the layers might be too hard (brittle) for practical purposes. You remember ionic compounds are harder and more brittle than a covalent compound, and decide to quantify the percent ionic character of the bonding. Find the % ionic character of the interatomic bonds for Er2O3 and Y2O3. (Electronegativity for Er is 1.2)
