A metal bonded to a non-metal atom. None of these other choices are correct. A polyatomic ion. Non-metal atoms that share valence electrons. A molecule or a molecular compound.arrow_forwardPlease anwer question 1arrow_forwardDraw the Lewis structure for OSiS before answering the following questions (You do NOT submit a picture just answer the questions). Silicon is the central atom and all atoms obey the octet rule. WARNING: Do NOT USE the internet or other sources to find the structures. Use ONLY the rules taught in class. ALL atoms obey the octet rule Answer the following questions for the Lewis structure for OSiS , given that silicon is the central atom and all atoms obey the octet rule. Give answers as numbers (1,2,3 ...etc.) NOT words (one, two three etc.) How many double bonds exist in this structure How many electrons surround the silicon atom How many lone pairs are around the silicon atom How many lone pairs are around the sulfur atom How many lone pairs are around the oxygen atom How many electrons surround the Sulfur atomarrow_forward

Fluorine is higher on the periodic table than chlorine. b. Fluorine has a smaller atomic radius than chlorine. c. Fluorine has fewer electrons than chlorine. Selected:d. Fluorine has a larger electronegativity than chlorine.arrow_forwardQuestion 3 Will magnesium and fluorine atoms most likely form an ionic bond or a covalent bond? Question 4 Write the name and formula of the compound made of magnesium and fluorine.arrow_forward
- What it the main difference between an ionic and a covalent bond? Group of answer choices Both bonds are the same, but named different to describe different atoms involved. One is the sharing of a pair of electrons, the other is the transfer of at least one electron. The electrons are traded between the two atoms and this keeps the atoms close. One involves electrons, the other does not involve any electrons. The electrons in both types of bonding undergo an exchange.arrow_forwardFor beryllium (Be) and fluorine (F) Draw the Lewis dot diagram for each atom and use arrows to show how the electrons will move. Write the formula for the compound formed.arrow_forward
