In ionic bonding the metal donates its valence electron to the?
The metal gives its electron(s) to a nonmetal.
Is covalent bonding a nonmetal or metal?
Nonmetals undergo covalent bonding with one another. Covalent bonding is neither a nonmetal nor a metal.
What kinds of elements are involved in an ionic bond?
In most cases the types of elements that are involved in ionic bonding are a metal and a nonmetal. for example: NaCl , KI and some more.
Is covalent a metal or nonmetal?
Covalent bonding is a type not found in metals (there mainly metal bonds or ionic bonds) In nonmetals more covalent bonding is common.
Is NaCl ionic bonding or covalent bonding?
It is ionic bonding because Na is sodium which is a metal and Cl is chlorine which is a nonmetal. Ionic Bonding happens between nonmetals and nonmetals.
In ionic bonding the metal donates its valence electron to the?
The metal gives its electron(s) to a nonmetal.
What is a ionic a nonmetal or metal?
it is bonding that occurs between a metal and a nonmetal with a transfer of electrons

Is covalent bonding a nonmetal or metal?
Nonmetals undergo covalent bonding with one another. Covalent bonding is neither a nonmetal nor a metal.
What two elements for example a metal and nonmetal where one gains an electron and the other looses an electron?
for example: metal-potassium nonmetal-fluorine

How many electrons will the metal sodium atoms lose when the metal reacts with a nonmetal?
Sodium loses one electron when it reacts with a nonmetal.
How can hydrogen act ad a metal and a nonmetal?
Hydrogen has 1 electron. It can easily gain or lose electron to form metal or non metal

Bonding present in barium chloride?
I think ionic, but I don't know why . . . barium is a metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. barium needs to transfer two electrons to form a +2 cation. each chlorine atom can gain one electron, to form -1 anions. One barium will need two chlorine atoms to form barium chloride, BaCl2, which has ionic bonding.
