Question

Which of the elements listed below would most likely form a nonpolar covalent bond when bonded to bromine?

1- Rb
2- Br
3- C
4- O
5- H

Answer 1

The answer is 2 Br

Non polar Covalent bond is formed between two Atoms of the same element as the equally share a pair of electron between them

I hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

The elements listed below would most likely form a nonpolar covalent bond when bonded to bromine is Br.

Explanation:

As it is given that we need to form a non polar covalent bond with bromine.

Non polar covalent bond is chemical bond that is formed when electrons are shared equally between two atoms.

Hence, the number of electrons shared by the adjacent atoms must be same.

Also the difference in electronegativity should be almost negligible.

Among the given five elements, the one satisfying all the conditions is Br.

Also, non polar Covalent bond is formed between two atoms of the same element because the pair of electrons shared is same.

Hence, option 2 is correct.
