Based on the following electronegativity values, which of the following best explains the polarity of the bond formed?
Element
Electronegativity
Carbon 2.5
Fluorine 4.0
Lithium 1.0
Question 1 options:
Li-F is covalent because the electronegativity difference is 5.0
C-F is ionic because the electronegativity difference is 1.5
Li-F is ionic because the electronegativity difference is 3.0
C-F is covalent because the electronegativity difference is 6.5
