PCl3 contains covalent bonds. In this molecule, phosphorus shares electrons with chlorine atoms to form chemical bonds. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between two nonmetals.
No, PCl3 does not exhibit ionic bonding. It forms covalent bonds because it is composed of nonmetals (phosphorus and chlorine) that share electron pairs to achieve stability. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal, resulting in charged ions.
CS2 - Carbon disulfide: covalent compound BaI2 - Barium iodide: ionic compound N2O4 - Dinitrogen tetroxide: covalent compound PCl3 - Phosphorus trichloride: covalent compound
PCl3 has covalent bonds. The difference in electronegativity between P and Cl is not large enough. The electronegativity of P is 2.19 and for Cl it is 3.16, and so the difference is less than one, making it a polar-covalent bond.
Ionic bonds are generally stronger than covalent bonds. Ionic bonds are formed between ions with opposite charges, resulting in a strong electrostatic attraction. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, which are generally not as strong as the electrostatic forces in ionic bonds.
KClO3 ===========potassium chlorate The potassium, K +, is ionically bonded to the chlorate, a polyatomic ion, CLO3 -, but the chlorine and oxygen atoms are covalently bonded together.
C. K2O does not have covalent bonds. K2O is an ionic compound consisting of potassium (K) and oxygen (O) ions held together by ionic bonds, while the other options (H2O, SO2, and PCl3) have covalent bonds.
No, PCl3 does not exhibit ionic bonding. It forms covalent bonds because it is composed of nonmetals (phosphorus and chlorine) that share electron pairs to achieve stability. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal, resulting in charged ions.
The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent.

Hydrogen is involved in covalent bonds but sometimes also in ionic bonds.
