What are some similarities between covalent bonds and ionic bonds?

Answer 1

Polar covalent bonds have a positive end and a negative end. It is likely a partial charge, usually expressed by the symbol d+ or d-, but it's still a difference in charge. Ionic bonds, by their very nature, are polar because they're comprised of ions, which themselves are charged particles. So, polar covalent bonds and ionic bonds each feature a difference in charge based on the sharing or transfer of electrons.

Answer 2

polar covalent compounds have unequal distribution of electrons as in water,ammonia etc...

in such cases the electronegativity difference is there nd the more electronegative atom attracts the shared pair pair of electrons towards itself and acquires a partial negative charge...

in covalent compounds sharing takes place.

Answer 3

A polar covalent bond is a bond in which a pair of electrons is shared in common between two atoms, but the pair is held more closely by one of the atoms. An ionic bond is A chemical bond between two ions with opposite charges, characteristic of salts. Also called electrovalent bond.

Answer 4

Polar covalent and non-polar covalent bonds are similar in the fact that both bonds can ONLY occur between two non-metals. They are different in the fact that non-polar bonding can only occur between particles of the same element because a non-polar bond is when two non-metals bond with an equal pull for electrons which can only occur between particles of the same element which have the same electronegativity and number of one, valence electrons and two, principle energy levels. Non-polar bonding is also different because Noble Gas particles will only bond with non-polar bonds (each other).

Answer 5

the atoms involved in both a polar-covalent bond and an ionic bond have charges

Answer 6

they both dissolve in water

Answer 7

They both involve electrons.
