Grade 10 Science Worksheet

Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

1. 1.

   The Na–Cl difference is 2.23. Using Pauling's formula, percent ionic = (1 − e^(−d²/4)) × 100, what is the bond's ionic character, to 0.01%, Ari?
2. 2.

   The O–H difference is 1.24. Using Pauling's formula, percent ionic = (1 − e^(−d²/4)) × 100, what is the bond's ionic character, to 0.01%, Bo?
3. 3.

   The C=O difference is 0.89. Using Pauling's formula, percent ionic = (1 − e^(−d²/4)) × 100, what is the bond's ionic character, to 0.01%, Esme?

   • Metallic
   • Nonpolar covalent
   • Ionic
6. 5.

   Using the table, why is the bond in O₂ nonpolar, Luz?

   • Its difference is 1.7
   • Its difference is 0
   • Oxygen is a metal
7. 6.

   Two atoms have a difference of 0.2. What bond is likely, Noah?

   • Ionic
   • Nonpolar covalent
   • Polar covalent
8. 7.

   In the polar O–H bond, which atom pulls the shared electrons closer, Pia?

   • Hydrogen
   • Neither
   • Oxygen
9. 8.

   Why do metals conduct electricity, Ren?

   • Their pooled electrons can move
   • They share pairs
   • Their ions are fixed in place tightly
10. 9.

    Why can a metal be bent into a new shape without shattering, Tala?

    • Its bonds are ionic and rigid
    • Ions slide within the sea
    • It has no electrons
11. 10.

    What holds a metal's atoms together, Zee?

    • Opposite ions in a lattice
    • Ions pulled by the electron sea
    • Pairs shared between two neighbor atoms
