They all share the same electrons ,

they are crystalline in nature.

they are brittle and hard.

bond strength is high but lesser than ionic bond.

they are not soluble in water.

they are not soluble in polar solvents like ether,benzen,acetone.

Does c6h12o6 have ionic and covalent bonding?

Yes, C6H12O6 (glucose) has both ionic and covalent bonding. The carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds in glucose are covalent bonds, while the oxygen-hydrogen bonds exhibit characteristics of both ionic and covalent bonding due to the differences in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen.

What are the characteristics of covalent bonding?

Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve a full outer shell of electrons. It is typically seen in nonmetallic elements. Covalent bonds are strong, but not as strong as ionic or metallic bonds.
