Consider the following element combinations. classify the bonds formed between each pair as ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent qualitatively based solely on each element's position on the periodic table. do not conduct calculations. drag the appropriate items to their respective bins: ionic | polar covalent | nonpolar covalent (p and i | fe and o | s and cl | s and s | br and br | o and cl | be and cl | al and n)

An ionic bond is formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. It is usually formed between a metal + non-metal.

A covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between two atoms. It is formed between two nonmetals. A polar covalent bond is formed between 2 non-metals which differ in their electronegativities. In contrast, in a non-polar covalent interaction the two atoms could either be the same or have very close electronegativities.

1) P and I : Both non-metals with different electronegativities= Polar Covalent

2) Fe and O: Metal + non-metal = Ionic

3) S and Cl: Both non-metals with different electronegativities= Polar Covalent

4) S and S: Both non-metals and the same atoms = Non-polar Covalent

5) Br and Br: Both non-metals and the same atoms = Non-polar Covalent

6) O and Cl: Both non-metals with different electronegativities= Polar Covalent

7) Be and Cl: Metal + non-metal = Ionic

8) Al and N: Metal + non-metal = Ionic

Bond between Fe and O is an ionic bond, between S and S & Br and Br is a non polar covalent bond and the bond between S and Cl, O and Cl, Be and Cl and between Al and N is a polar covalent bond.  

Further explanation:

Bond between P and I:

The bond between phosphorous and iodine is a polar covalent bond.  

Bond between Fe and O:

The bond between iron and oxygen is an ionic bond.

Bond between S and Cl:  

The bond between sulpher and chlorine is a polar covalent bond.

Bond between S and S:

The bond between two sulpher atoms is a non polar covalent bond.  

Bond between Br and Br:

The bond between two bromine atoms is a non polar covalent bond.  

Bond between O and Cl:

The bond between an oxygen and chlorine atom is a polar covalent bond.  

Bond between Be and Cl:

The bond between a beryllium and chlorine is a polar covalent bond.  

Bond between Al and N:

The bond between an aluminum atom and nitrogen atom is a polar covalent bond.  

Ionic Bond:

Complete transfer of electrons forms ionic bond. It forms between a metal and a non-metal. Metals can easily donate its electron while the non-metal can accept the electron.  

Covalent Bond:

Mutual sharing of electrons forms covalent bond. It is usually formed between non metals.  

It is of two type polar covalent and non polar covalent bond.  

Polar Covalent Bond:

Polar covalent bond is formed when both the bonding atoms are different and there is unequal distribution of electrons between them.

Non polar covalent bond:

Non polar covalent bond is formed between two same atoms. In this type of bonding there is equal sharing of electrons between bonding atoms.

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.

since electrons are negative the answer is neagtaive
