Yes, salts do form covalent bonds. Actually, no bond is 100% ionic or covalent. For example, if you consider NaCl, even though it is considered ionic, it has some amount of covalent character in its bond.
Nope. They're ionic compounds. A salt usually consists of a metal bonded to either a non-metal element or polyatomic ion. This bond features a transfer of electrons from the metal to the non-metal, and therefore an ionic plus to minus attraction. Covalent compounds feature shared electrons among non-metals.
No as they are a metal and a non-metal joined together so are bonded ionically and are therefore a simple ionic structure.
False for apex
False
True
It has 5 valence electrons and can easily form 5 covalent bonds.
Within a water molecule is covalent bonds. between water molecules are hydrogen bonds.
Covalent bonds form between non-metal molecules. Covalent bonds come in 2 kinds: polar and nonpolar. If the two atoms bonding have an electronegativity difference of less than .5, then the bond is usually considered nonpolar covalent. If the difference is greater than .5 but less than 2 the bond is usually considered polar covalent.
That is a covalent bond.
The types of bonds are corporate bonds, junk bonds ,treasury bonds and municipal bonds. There are saving bonds also.
As a metal plutonium has metallic bonds. Salts of Pu have ionic bonds.
Mercury form ionic salts.
Salts are ionic. If they contain polyatomic ions,(e.g. NH4+ , SO42-.) There are covalent bonds inside these ions.
These salts have ionic bonds.
Salts do not usually contain covalent bonds e.g. NaCl doesn't.
They form both. For example, the standard alkyls, alcohols, acids, amines, aminos, etc. form covalent bonds, but organometallic compounds, salts of acids and amines, and similar compounds form ionic (although still using covalent bonding for part of thir structure).
They form covalent bonds, because their difference of electronegativities is less than 1.7 and carbon has half filled valence electronic shell, we know that such atoms can not form the covalent bonds. (with exception of acetylide salts)
All foods that contain carbohydrates, proteins or sugars have covalent bonds. The only food products that don't have covalent bonds are salts.
It is used to form molecules and various compounds. In fact, most of the bonds are covalent bonds.

As a nonmetal carbon forms covalent bonds.
no. they form ionic bonds.
