In general, ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal. Covalent bonds usually form between two nonmetals.
Which of the following pairs of atoms is most likely to form a covalent bond?

Count the number of each type of atom in the equation below, and then balance the equation. write in the numbers of atoms and coefficients. add a 1 if there should be no coefficient. cs2(l) + o2(g) → co2(g) + so2(g) c [ ] s [ ] o > c [ ] s [ ] o [ ] cs2(l) + [ ] o2(g) > [ ] co2(g) + [ ] so2(g)

Pegmatites are igneous rocks in which the individual minerals are very large. typically, the minerals are all light-colored quartz, feldspar and muscovite. if you were given a black and white photograph of a pegmatite in a quarry (where the rock has been blasted and broken), what physical properties could you use to identify those three minerals in this hypothetical photo? describe each mineral and the specific diagnostic properties. be specific.

Air pressure is measured in pascals. for a professional american football game, the ball should be inflated to about 90,000 pascals. scientists studied the effects of air temperature on the pressure inside american footballs by taking these steps: 1. prepare 100 footballs. 2. measure each football's air pressure. 3. divide footballs into 10 groups. 4. place the groups in different lockers cooled to different air temperatures. 5. after 12 hours, remove the footballs from lockers. 6. measure each football's pressure again. 7. compare the new pressures to the starting pressures. what two terms best describe the variable "air pressure inside the football" in this experiment? independent, qualitative independent, quantitative dependent, qualitative dependent, quantitative
