Which of the following pairs of elements would form the covalent bond with the largest dipole moment? view available hint(s) which of the following pairs of elements would form the covalent bond with the largest dipole moment?
a. ge and o
b. h and p
c. in and f
d. b and n

In-F bond has the largest dipole moment.

Explanation:

Given the electronegativities:

Ge= 2.01

O= 3.44

H= 2.20

P= 2.19

In= 1.78

F= 3.98

B= 2.04

N= 3.04

The bond between Ge and O has an electronegativity difference:

ED= 3.44 - 2.01= 1.43

The bond between H and P has an electronegativity difference:

ED= 2.20 - 2.19= 0.01

The bond between In and F has an electronegativity difference:

ED= 3.98 - 1.78= 2.20

The bond between B and N has an electronegativity difference:

ED= 3.04 - 2.04= 1.00

As In-F bond has the largest electronegativity difference, this is the covalent bond with the largest dipole moment.

b.final

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
