Title: Re: Distinguish the difference between ionic bond and covalent bond as many ways as possible.? Post by: habiba on Aug 10, 2015 Ionic bonds result when electrons are transferred between atoms.
Covalent bonds result when valence electrons are shared between atoms. You should be able to identify whether an ionic or covalent bond is being formed between atoms. Title: Re: Distinguish the difference between ionic bond and covalent bond as many ways as possible.? Post by: dtimmons95 on Aug 10, 2015 A molecule or compound is made when two or more atoms form a chemical bond, linking them together. The two types of bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. In an ionic bond, the atoms are bound together by the attraction between oppositely-charged ions. For example, sodium and chloride form an ionic bond, to make NaCl, or table salt. In a covalent bond, the atoms are bound by shared electrons. If the electron is shared equally between the atoms forming a covalent bond, then the bond is said to be nonpolar. Usually, an electron is more attracted to one atom than to another, forming a polar covalent bond. For example, the atoms in water, H2O, are held together by polar covalent bonds.
