Question

  1. match each type of bond to its description.

nonpolar covalent
polar covalent
ionic
electrons shared unequally
electrons shared equally
electrons transfered
(note: some text at the bottom is partially cut off but the main question is clear)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall the definitions of each bond type:

  • Ionic Bond: Involves the transfer of electrons (electrons are "stolen" or transferred from one atom to another, resulting in ions that are attracted).
  • Nonpolar Covalent Bond: Electrons are shared equally between atoms (since the atoms have similar electronegativities, there's no significant charge separation).
  • Polar Covalent Bond: Electrons are shared unequally between atoms (due to a difference in electronegativities, creating a partial charge on atoms).

Now we match:

  • "Electrons transferred" corresponds to Ionic (as ionic bonds involve electron transfer between atoms to form ions).
  • "Electrons shared unequally" corresponds to Polar covalent (unequal sharing creates polarity).
  • "Electrons shared equally" corresponds to Nonpolar covalent (equal sharing means no polarity in the bond).
  • The last description "atoms bonded together makes a" (likely a typo or cut-off, but assuming the standard matching, we use the above).

Answer:

  • Ionic: Electrons transferred
  • Nonpolar covalent: Electrons shared equally
  • Polar covalent: Electrons shared unequally
