Match the molecule or compound to the type of bond found between the elements.

Question

molecules/compounds
1.NaCl
2.MgBr2
3.CO2
4. SO2
type of bond
a.covalent bond
b.ionic bond

Answer 1

To match the molecules or compounds to the type of bond found between their elements:

1. NaCl - b. ionic bond
2. MgBr2 - b. ionic bond
3. CO2 - a. covalent bond
4. SO2 - a. covalent bond

So, the matches are:

• NaCl → ionic bond
• MgBr2 → ionic bond
• CO2 → covalent bond
• SO2 → covalent bond
