Okay, let's continue with the remaining questions.


1. Predict whether the bonding between the following pairs of elements would be primarily ionic or covalent. Justify your answers.

  • c) Ga and F

    • Gallium (Ga) is a metal, and Fluorine (F) is a non-metal. The electronegativity difference between a metal and a non-metal is typically large.
    • Bond type: Ionic
    • Justification: There is a large electronegativity difference, leading to the transfer of electrons from Ga to F.
  • d) N and S

    • Nitrogen (N) and Sulfur (S) are both non-metals. The electronegativity difference between two
