The bonds are ionic or covalent.
Two or more different elements that are chemically combined in a definite ratio is a compound. Based on the nature of the bonds, it can be called an ionic compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by ionic bonds) or an molecular compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by covalent bonds).
Salts are those substances held together by ionic bonds.
A molecule may consist of atoms of a single chemical element, as with oxygen (O2), or of different elements, as with water (H2O). Atoms and complexes connected by non-covalent bonds such as hydrogen bonds or ionic bonds are generally not considered single molecules.

The three types of chemical bonds that hold the atoms within a compound together are Ionic bonds, Covalent bonds, and Polar covalent bonds.
The three types of chemical bonds that hold the atoms within a compound together are Ionic bonds, Covalent bonds, and Polar covalent bonds.
Two types of chemical bonds are very important: ionic and covalent.
You can form compounds with ionic bonds, or covalent bonds. Example 1: Salts are bonded together with ionic bonds, such as NaCl or CuCl2. When compounds have ionic bonds it is the electrostatic force between the atoms that bonds them together. Example 2: Inorganic/organic molecules are mostly bonded together with covalent bonding. this means that the atoms share pairs of electrons with each other, and there is a equilibrium between the attractive and repulsive forces between the atoms. CO2, EtOH, H2O all have covalent bonds "holding" the molecule together
ionic bond and covalent bond
Bonds hold atoms together. There are hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and covalent bonds.
covalent bonds
The bonds are ionic or covalent.
Covalent bonds hold atoms together. Ionic bonds hold ions together
Ionic - electron transfer Covalent - electron share (co - share)
An ionic compound has an ionic bond (held together by two oppositely charged ions) and is between a metal and a non metal. A molecular compound has covalent bonds , which is when atoms are bound by the sharing of electrons.
Potassium chloride is an ionic compound. The bond holding the atoms together is known as a ionic bond. The bonds in this lattice all have to be broken to melt the compound.
