M20 and Nm2O are two compound, where M is a metal and Nm is a nonmetal. The Nm-O bond has an electronegativity difference of 1.4. Which of the two compounds is most likely a solid at room temperature? OA Nm20 is most likely a solid as it has a dipole-dipole which is weaker than the ionic bonding in M20. O B. Can not be determined from the information provided. OC. Nm20 is most likely a solid as it has an ionic bonding which is stronger than the dipole- dipole force in M20.
Types of Chemical Bonds
The attractive force which has the ability of holding various constituent elements like atoms, ions, molecules, etc. together in different chemical species is termed as a chemical bond. Chemical compounds are dependent on the strength of chemical bonds between its constituents. Stronger the chemical bond, more will be the stability in the chemical compounds. Hence, it can be said that bonding defines the stability of chemical compounds.
Polarizability In Organic Chemistry
Polarizability refers to the ability of an atom/molecule to distort the electron cloud of neighboring species towards itself and the process of distortion of electron cloud is known as polarization.
Coordinate Covalent Bonds
A coordinate covalent bond is also known as a dative bond, which is a type of covalent bond. It is formed between two atoms, where the two electrons required to form the bond come from the same atom resulting in a semi-polar bond. The study of coordinate covalent bond or dative bond is important to know about the special type of bonding that leads to different properties. Since covalent compounds are non-polar whereas coordinate bonds results always in polar compounds due to charge separation.
