What are likely to form an ionic bond magnesium and sulfur or nitrogen and oxygen?
Magnesium and sulfur are much more likely than nitrogen and oxygen to form an ionic bond, because the difference in electronegativity between sulfur and magnesium is much greater than the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and oxygen. Another way of phrasing the reason is that magnesium is a metal and sulfur a nonmetal, while nitrogen and oxygen are both nonmetals.
What is the electronegativity of O?
The Pauling electronegativity of O is 3,44.
Does selenium have more in common with sulfur or bromine?
Selenium is more in common with Sulfur because they are in the same group. They have the same number of valence electrons and the only elements Selenium is related to is Sulfur and Tellurium. Anna C.
What mineral is identified by smell?
Sulfur. Arsenic may have a garlic smell.
What are the nonmetals in the oxygen family?
The non-metals in the Oxygen Family/Group are oxygen, sulfur, and selenium. The metalloids are arsenic and antimony.
Is As4O6 ionic or molecular?
According to the electronegativity difference between arsenic and oxygen, 1.26, it is molecular.
Is Hydrogen sulfide covalent or ionic?
It is covalent due to the small electronegativity difference between hydrogen and sulfur.
Why is SO2 not an ionic compound?
The difference in electronegativity between sulfur and oxygen is not sufficient to form ionic bonds.
What is the difference between the electronegative values of sulfur and carbon?
Both Carbon and Sulphur have an electronegativity value of 2.5
Is beryllium more electronegative than sulfur?
Sulfur is more electronegative than beryllium. The electronegativity of sulfur is 2.58, and the electronegativity of beryllium is 1.57.
Is oxygen more electronegative than sulfur?
Yes, oxygen is more electronegative than sulfur. This is because its electronegativity is about 3.44, while sulfur's is about 2.58.
Is the electronegative of sulfur high or low?
Sulfur has a high electronegativity.
What are likely to form an ionic bond magnesium and sulfur or nitrogen and oxygen?
Magnesium and sulfur are much more likely than nitrogen and oxygen to form an ionic bond, because the difference in electronegativity between sulfur and magnesium is much greater than the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and oxygen. Another way of phrasing the reason is that magnesium is a metal and sulfur a nonmetal, while nitrogen and oxygen are both nonmetals.
What is th electronegativity of Sulfur trioxide?
3.44
What is the electronegativity of O?
The Pauling electronegativity of O is 3,44.
What is the name of the compound with the formula of AsF5?
The compound AsF5 is arsenic pentafluoride.
Is arsenic pentafluoride polar?
No. The As-F bond dipoles, due to the difference in electronegativity between As and F, cancel each other out because of the symmetry of the molecule which is a trigonal bipyramid
