Q:

The bonds in the compound MgSO4 can be described as

A) covalent B) ionic
C) both A & B D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) both A & B

Explanation:

Here the given compound is MgSO4.

In the given compound, Sulphur (S) and Oxygen (O) are two non metals and Magnesium (Mg) is a metal.

In this compound, Sulphur and Oxygen reacts to form covalent bond and the metal Magnesium reacts with both non metals Sulphur and Oxygen to form ionic bonds.

 

Hence, in the given compound MgSO4 there are both covalent and ionic bonds.

Q:

Which type of molecule is CF4?

A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge B) polar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge
C) nonpolar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge D) polar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge

Explanation:

CF4 is tetrahedral.

Since the four 'F' atoms have the same electronegativity values, there is no bias in electron distribution toward any one.

 

Therefore, electron/charge distribution is symmetrical, which also means that the molecule is nonpolar.

 

Hence, CF4 is nonpolar molecule with a symmetrical distribution of charge.
