What is the electro negativity difference of bromide?

The electronegativity difference of bromide (Br) is 0.97. The electronegativity of bromine is 2.96 and the electronegativity of chlorine is 3.93.


How do you classify bonding type according to electro-negativity differences?

Bonding type can be classified based on electronegativity difference as follows: Nonpolar covalent bond: Electronegativity difference less than 0.5. Polar covalent bond: Electronegativity difference between 0.5 and 1.7. Ionic bond: Electronegativity difference greater than 1.7.


Is a covalent bond considered polar or nonpolar?

Both actually. It just depends on the electro-negativity of the atoms bonded together. If both have the same electro-negativity, it is a nonpolar covalent bond. Otherwise, you have a polar covalent bond.


How is electro-negativity used to predict the most likely bond that will form between two nonmetal atoms and between a nonmetal and a metal atom?

The electronegativity can be defined as the tendency of an atom to attract an electron.There are three rules of Bonding:-Metallic elements form metallic bonded solids and metal: Metal combinations form metallically bonded solids.Nonmetallic elements and non-metal : Non-metal combinations are covalently bonded. A bond between two non-metal atoms is Covalent.Bonds between metals and nonmetals are either ionic or covalent, depending on the electro-negativity difference.The third rule is governed by critical electro-negativity difference from Pauling's expression for the ionicity fraction of a bond.For more insight on Electro-negativity difference you can search Pauling's Scale or study the related link below.


What element has the lowest electronectivity?

Francuim is thought to have the lowest electro-negativity.Linus Pauling estimated that francium had the same electro-negativity as Caesium = 0.7. The electro-negativity of caesium was later revised to 7.9 but francium is so unstable and reactive that it is not possible to obtain samples of pure francium to accurately determine its electro-negativity.

What elements has the highest electronagativity?

The element with the highest electro negativity is Fluorine. The general trend on the periodic table for electro negativity is that as you go across periods (horizontally) the electro negativity increases while going down groups (vertically) the electro negativity decreases.


How does electronegative vary across a periodic?

The electro-negativity of elements increases as you move across a period.

Why h20 has high hydrogen bonding then h2s?

H and O have much electro negativity difference.H and S do not have much difference to make H bonds.
