Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The electronegativity values of metals in comparison with nonmetals has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Close relationship between ionic and covalent bonding models becomes apparent if the bond polarity and electronegativity is considered. Electronegativity is the measure of relative attractive for the shared pair of electrons in a bond. Higher the electronegative value for an atom, the more it attracts the shared pair of electrons towards itself.
In Periodic table, when moving from left to right in a period, the electronegativity value increases. While moving from top to bottom within group, the electronegativity value decreases. Nonmetals have higher electronegativity values than metals. Metals gives electrons and nonmetals accepts electrons.

This is the structure of protonated acetone. Consider all bonds involving hydrogen atoms, and label those that is/are polar using the partial charge notation described in chapter 2 (note that a formal charge on an atom does not necessarily denote the partial charge distribution in a bond). Then, put in the given box the label of the hydrogen atom that is most electron-poor. H₂ H₂ На H₂ O || H₂ Hb H₂ Most electron-poor hydrogen (H₂ or H₂?): 1 / 4arrow_forward
