What types of bonding would be expected for each of the foll
What type(s) of bonding would be expected for each of the following materials: brass (a copper-zinc alloy), rubber, barium sulfide (BaS), solid xenon, bronze, nylon, and aluminum phosphide (AIP)?
Solution
Brass : metallic bonding
Rubber: covalent bonding
Barium Sulfide: Ionic Bonding
Solid xenon - there are van der wall forces involved
Bronze: metallic bonding
Nylon : covalent bonding
Aluminum phosphide: ionic /covalent
