Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent

Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent

Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

For Ca and K,

E.N of Calcium = 1.00

E.N of Potassium = 0.82

E.N Difference 0.18 (Non Polar Covalent)

For Ca and Mg,

E.N of Magnesium = 1.31

E.N of Calcium = 1.00

E.N Difference 0.31 (Non Polar Covalent)

For Ca and Br,

E.N of Bromine = 2.96

E.N of Calcium = 1.00

E.N Difference 1.96 (Ionic)

For Ca and S,

E.N of Sulfur = 2.58

E.N of Calcium = 1.00

E.N Difference 1.58 (Polar Covalent)

Result:

The bond between Calcium and Bromine is Ionic in Nature.

Achemical reaction (also known as a chemical change) produces substances that are chemically different from the starting materials. an example of a chemical reaction is the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen gas.in a physical change, a substance changes its physical appearance but not its chemical identity. an example of physical change is the formation of liquid water from solid water, a familiar process called melting. physically, liquid water looks very different from solid water (ice) but the chemical identity, water, is the same for both. which of following changes that affect the composition of our atmosphere involve physical changes and which involve chemical reactions? oxygen gas changes to ozone during thunderstorms carbon dioxide is produced by the combustion of gasoline in an automobile engine. when coal, oil, and natural gas are decomposed in landsills they produce methane gas. freezing rain develops when a warm air mass overrides a cold air mass. fog forms from water vapor when the temperature drops below the dew point

Oxidation-reduction reactions (often called "redox" for short) are reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one species to another. oxidation states, or oxidation numbers, allow chemists to keep track of these electron transfers. in general, one element will lose electrons (oxidation), with the result that it will increase in oxidation number, and another element will gain electrons (reduction), thereby decreasing in oxidation number. the species that is oxidized is called the reducing agent or reductant. the species that is reduced is called the oxidizing agent or oxidant. to sum up: oxidation = increase in oxidation state = loss of electrons = reducing agent reduction = decrease in oxidation state = gain of electrons = oxidizing agent part a which element is oxidized in this reaction? fe2o3+3co→2fe+3co2 enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is oxidized part b which element is reduced in this reaction? 2hcl+2kmno4+3h2c2o4→6co2+2mno2+2kcl+4h2o enter the elemental symbol. view available hint(s) is reduced
