Answer : 1. "a nonpolar molecule with polar bonds"
Explanation :

Answer: A) a nonpolar molecule with polar bonds Explanation: The four bonds of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) are polar, but the molecule is nonpolar because the bond polarity is cancelled by the symmetric tetrahedral shape. Hence, making the net dipole as zero and molecule as non-polar.   When other atoms substitute for some of the Cl atoms, the symmetry is broken and the molecule becomes polar.

Answer : 3. "Lead(II) oxide"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Lead(II) oxide Explanation: The systematic name for a chemical is the unique name given to it by the International Union of Pure Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The IUPAC name can differ from a chemical compound's general name.   PbO is an ionic compound since it consists of a Lead as metal and Oxygen as nonmetal. The systematic name for PbO is Lead (II) oxide. Here we need to put the (II) since lead has more than one combining capacity.
