Which of the following molecule’s formation doesn’t include ionic bond?(a) LiCl(b) MgO(c) SnCl4(d) H2OThe question was posed to me in a job interview.I'd like to ask this question from Ionic or Electrovalent Bond topic in section Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

The correct choice is (d) H2O

The best explanation: The molecules LiCl, MGO, and SnCl4 are formed by IONIC BONDS as they transfer electrons from an electropositive atom, that DONATES to the electronegative atom, that accepts. Whereas H2O has covalent bonds as it shares electrons.
