1. The answer for this one is letter A which is nitrogen.

Nitrogen atom when bonded

with another nitrogen atom produces a nonpolar bond since the electronegativity

value of nitrogen is 3.0, the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is 0

(3.0-3.0). Also, it has a zero dipole moment and the bond pairs of electrons are

equally distributed between the two nitrogen atoms. Chlorine on the other hand also

has an electronegativity value of 3.0 that can also be considered as a nonpolar bond

when bonded to nitrogen atom since the electronegativity difference between the two

is 0 (3.0-3.0), but its bond type is polar covalent because there is an unequal sharing

of electrons because nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons while chlorine atom shares only

one electron. The rest of the choices are not considered as nonpolar bond when

bonded to nitrogen atom since its electronegativity is greater than 0.4. Oxygen has an

electronegativity value of 3.5 minus the electronegativity value of nitrogen which is

3.0 and that is equal to 0.5. Nitrogen has an electronegativity value of 3.0 minus the

electronegativity value of hydrogen which is 2.1 and that is equal to 0.9.

2. The answer for this one is letter C which is KCl. KCl is an ionic compound because

Potassium (K) is a metal while Chlorine (Cl) is a nonmetal. They undergo ionic

bonding which means that there is a transfer of electron/s between metal and

nonmetal to form ionic compound. The rest of the choices are covalent compounds

since they undergo covalent bonding in which there is a sharing of electron/s between

two nonmetals.
