Q

What is the relation between the radius, the charge and the ionic bond of an element?

A
  • Smaller the radius and greater the charge of ions, the stronger of ionic bonds and vice versa

21
Q

Order of energy required to breakl the bonds in all tyopes of bonds?

A

Covalent < metallic < ionic

22
Q

Explain why the bonding of HCl is less than that of LiCl

A
  • LiCl has ionic bonding whereas HCl has polar, covalent bonding
  • The electrostatic forces of attraction in Ionic bonds are much stronger than the Intermolecular forces of attraction in polar covalent bonds.
23
Q

Which, out of CaO and CaF2, will have a higher melting point

A
  • CaO
  • O has a greater charge than Fluorine meaning there’s a stronger ionic bond in CaO than CaF2 hence a greater magnitude of enthalpy charge
24
Q

When ions lose electrons what do they gain

A

A positive charge (or forming cations)

And vice versa
