Solid manganese(IV) oxide reacts with solid aluminum metal to produce solid manganese and solid aluminum oxide. Balance the equation for this reaction (in lowest multiple integers).Write the unbalanced equation for this reaction (listed in the same order as given in the problem).

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.
