Question

which of the following best predicts the type of bond that forms between br and br?
a nonpolar covalent
b polar covalent
c metallic
d ionic

Explanation:

• Non - polar covalent bonds form between atoms with the same electronegativity.
• Br is a non - metal. Two Br atoms have the same electronegativity.
• Polar covalent bonds form between atoms with different electronegativities.
• Metallic bonds form between metal atoms.
• Ionic bonds form between a metal and a non - metal.

Answer:

A. nonpolar covalent
