Answer» CORRECT choice is (d) 250 kJ/mol Easiest explanation: Covalent BOND is a bond FORMED by the sharing of electrons. The bonds in all the polyatomic ions and diatomics are all covalent bonds. The energy needed to break a covalent bond is 250 kJ/mol. It is the strongest bond of ELECTROSTATIC, VAN der Waals force, and hydrogen bond. |
