In order to determine the polarity of the bond we must first look at the difference of electronegativity.

Below are the values of electronegativity:

Chlorine: 3.0

Iodine: 2.5

Bromine: 2.8

Fluorine: 4.0

Now we look at the difference (subtract the lower number from the higher number):

Cl-Cl=0

Br-I=0.3

F-I=1.5

F-Cl=1.0

Now that we have the difference of electronegativity, we can examine the evidence. Keep in mind that the higher the number, the more polar the bond will be. In this case the most polar bond would be the Flourine-Iodine bond as it has a difference of electronegativity of 1.5, meaning that it is extremely polar.

If polarity just depends upon difference of electronegativities of two atoms then Si-F is the most polar, but there is another factorDipole moment (a vector like behaviour), Si atoms forms 4 covalent bonds (tetrahedral molecule) so in SiF molecule Dipole moment is zero and it behaves just like a non polar molecule. same is the case of CF4.

P-F because the difference in electronegativity between P(EN 2.19) and F(3.98) is greater than between N (EN 3.04) and F (3.98)

The greater the difference = the more POLAR

Any bond between the atoms of the same element has no polarity. In this context, P-F bond has the highest polarity.

Is NF polar covalent?

it is ionic, soluble in polar solutes the reason it will not dissolve in water is dure to the nature of fluorides not wanting to let go of their cations

Is NF3 polar or nonpolar?

No, NF3 is polar. (x1) Nitrogen- 5 valence electrons (one lone pair) (x3) Flourine- 7 valence electrons Lewis Dot- .. N | | | :F::F::F:  ¨ ¨ ¨ VSEPER causes F's to be pushed away from N. All force arrows direct toward F's because F's electronegativity is larger than N's.


Who is most likely to get neurofibromatosis?

ANYONE can get Neurofibromatosis. And Anyone who has NF has a 50-50% chance of having a child with NF.NF is more than just "lumps". This is a disorder of the nervous system and can affect every single nerve in the body. NF can cause deafness, blindess, bone and skin deformities as well as cancer leading to death.Cafe' au lait marks (birthmarks) are typically the first sign of NF, progressing to Neurofibromas (tumors), learning difficulties, (sometimes) scoliosis, and other bone deformities.Not uncommon, NF occurs in 1 out of ever 3000 births...making it the MOST common genetic disorder out there. (whether u believe that or not, its true)The neurofibromas can be quite debilitating. Causing the body to twist and deform itself around the deeply embedded nerves as well as the external tumors that can cause severe cosmetic issues.

What is the likelyhood of neurofibromatosis?

Neurofibromatosis or NF affects 1 out of every 3000 births. It affects more than 100,000 Americans. NF is the most common genetic disorder.....More common than Multiple sclerosis, Tay Sac Disease and hereditary Muscular Dystrophy. For those affected by NF....Their offspring have a 50% Chance of also being affected. In the statistics....about HALF of those cases are from a Spontaneous Mutation...meaning there is no history of NF in the family.
