2381/3500 Resources 0 Hint Classify each compound as containing only ionic bonds, only covalent bonds, or containing both types of bonds. Ionic only Covalent only Both Answer Bank | NHAC CHO, Ba(CHOh

Answer 1

ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non metal

covalent bond is formed between 2 non metals.

In covalent bond,

If both non metals are same, the bond is non polar covalent or pure covalent.

If both non metals are different, the bond is polar covalent.

NaCl has only 1 metal and 1 non metal.

So, it will ionic only.

ClO2 has Cl and O both of which are non metals.

So, it will be covalent only.

Ba(ClO4)2 has metal and more than one non metals.

Non metals will form covalent bond.Metal and non metal will form ionic bond.

So, both are present here

Answer:

Ionic only: NaCl

Covalent only: ClO2

Both: Ba(ClO4)2
