How to tell if a bond is ionic or covalent?

One way to determine if a bond is ionic or covalent is to look at the electronegativity difference between the two atoms. If the difference is large (greater than 1.7), the bond is likely ionic. If the difference is small (less than 1.7), the bond is likely covalent. Additionally, ionic bonds typically form between a metal and a nonmetal, while covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.

How can you tell the if something is lead or pewter?

Lead is a heavy, soft metal with a bluish-gray color, while pewter is a lighter, softer metal with a silvery appearance. Lead also leaves a gray mark when scratched against a ceramic surface, whereas pewter does not. Additionally, lead is toxic, whereas pewter is a safer alternative for food and drink containers.


How do i know the difference between silver and silverplate?

One way to tell the difference between silver and silverplate is to look for a hallmark or stamp that indicates the metal content. Silver will typically be marked with a number such as "925" or "Sterling," indicating that it is real silver, while silverplate will often be marked with terms like "EPNS" (Electro Plated Nickel Silver) or "A1." Additionally, silverplate will generally have a layer of another metal, such as nickel or copper, underneath the thin silver coating.


How do you know when a bond is ionic or covalent?

An ionic bond is one in which electrons are gained/lost, ions are formed, and they attract, forming an ionic compound (e.g., HCl, H2SO4,Li2O) A covalent bond is one in which electrons are shared, and depending on the size of the atoms involved, could be polar (H2O) or nonpolar (N2).

What would you tell an engineer who has suggested a design for a new battery using silver for both electrodes?

There must be a difference between the electrodes. If both are silver metal the voltage will be zero. I don't know if it works with silver like it does with lead, but oxidizing the metal of one electrode might make a workable battery (a silver/silver oxide battery like the lead/lead oxide of the lead acid battery).
