An ion of Ca2+ would most likely ionically bond with an ion of O2- in a 1:1 ratio to form CaO (calcium oxide). Calcium typically bonds with oxygen to form stable ionic compounds due to their opposite charges.

Why would the nitrogen atom form a covalent bond?

It would form a nitrogen atom because Nitrogen is a nonmetal, and covalent bonds occur when a nonmetal bonds to another nonmetal.


Which element is likely to combine with a nonmetal K Ar F or Br?

K, potassium being a metal is highly reactive towards non metals.


A nonmetal would probably not be good for the frame of a bicycle because it would be too?

The question doesn't make much sense at the current state of engineering.Decades ago, a nonmetal frame would have been likely to be either excessively clumsy and heavy, or too weak/flexy.But with the introduction of carbon fiber, and even epoxy bonded wood(particularly bamboo), it's entirely possible to build perfectly functional nonmetal frames.In fact, nonmetal in the shape of carbon fiber is the prime choice for high performance bicycles.


Which of these pairs of elements would bond ionically with chlorine?

Elements from Group 1 (such as sodium) and Group 2 (such as magnesium) would bond ionically with chlorine. Sodium would form NaCl (sodium chloride) and magnesium would form MgCl2 (magnesium chloride) through ionic bonds with chlorine.


What type of bond would most likely form between a metal and a nonmetal?

Ionic bonds are most likely to occur between a metal and a non metal due to the general difference in electronegativity. Examples include sodium chloride, iron oxide, etc. In these bonds, electron(s) are typically transferred from the metal to the non-metal.


What is most likely to form ionic bonds is?

a metal and a nonmetal such as sodium and sulfur which would make sodium sulfide


A gaseous element is a poor conductor of heat and electricity and is extremely nonreactive Is the element likely to be a metal nonmetal or metalloid?

No it would be a group 18 element (helium, neon, argon, xenom, krypton or radon). These are unreactive, gaseous non-metals, which don't conduct heat or electricity at all well.


Is Br or At a more reactive nonmetal?

Bromine would likely be more reactive. Little is known about the chemical properties of astatine because it is very rare and has a short half-life.


What would be the best insulator given Na Si or C?

The best insulator is likely C because it is a nonmetal. Nonmetals are poor conductors and therefore good insulators. Si is a metalloid.
