Chemistry Questions

Ionic character depends on the electronegativity difference between the bonding elements. The greatest the elctronegativity diffference the greatest the ionic character.

Here in the given options, H-F has has the greatest ionic character. The electronegativity of Hydrogen is 2.1 and that of Fluorine is 4. Now the electronegativity difference is 4 - 2.1 = 1.9.

Natural gas is primarily composed of methane, but also contains ethane, propane, and heavier hydrocarbons.

Natural gas is a colorless, tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic gas. Because it is odorless, mercaptan is added to the natural gas, in very small amounts to give the gas a distinctive smell of rotten eggs. This strong smell can alert you of a potential gas leak.

It also contains small amounts of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and trace amounts of water.

Because of its being pollution free and  combustion efficient, Hydrogen gas is  called fuel of future. Because of its origin in marshy places, Methane is called as 'Marsh Gas'.

Coagulation :: The action or process of a liquid, especially blood, changing to a solid or semi-solid state.

SiCl4 is a non polar as the forces of attraction between the shared pair of electrons are equal and the molecule is symmetric.
