Which type of bond exists between an atom of carbon and an atom of fluorine?

polar covalent


Can fluorine ever form a non polar covalent bond?

Yes, fluorine can form a non polar bond, only with another fluorine atom, in fact fluorine gas.


Given that it has the highest electronegativity can a flouride atom ever form a nonpolar covalent bond?

A fluorine atom can never form a nonpolar covalent bond because if you were to use the electronegativeity chart and subtract the second highest number with Fluorine, you get numbers that range from 0.6 (polar covalent) to 3.3 (ionic).


Is the bond between fluorine and chlorine nonpolar covalent?

The electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and for fluorine it is 3.98. The difference in electronegativities is 0.54, so the bond between fluorine and oxygen is polar covalent.


Is oxygen and fluorine a polar or nonpolar covalent bond?

polar


Is potassium atom and a fluorine atom is covalent or ionic bond?

Potassium and fluorine will form an ionic bond


Is the H-F bond polar?

The bond between hydrogen and fluorine is polar covalent.


Two bonded fluorine atoms form?

A fluorine atom forms a covalent bond with another fluorine atom to produce the fluorine molecule which is gaseous at room temperature.


Does covalent hold hydrogen and fluorine atoms together?

Polar covalent bond.


Can a fluorine atom form a covalent bond?

Yes


What covalent bonds is the most polar hydrogen and fluorine or hydrogen and nitrogen?

Electronegativity Difference HF = 1.9 = ionic bond HC = 0.4 = nonpolar covalent HH = 0 = nonpolar covalent HN = 0.9 = polar covalent HN is the more polar bond. HF is not polar covalent, it is ionic.


What bond type does fluorine have?

Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.
