Is ionic bonding an example of intermolecular or intramolecular bonding?

Ionic bonding is an example of intramolecular bonding, where electrons are transferred between atoms to form ions that are held together by electrostatic forces.

Yes.


How is ionic bonding differant to covalent bonding?

In ionic bonding electrons are transferred from one element to another and are localised and not shared. the force of attraction in ionic bonding is electrostatic. In covalent bonding electrons are shared, or in some cases delocalised as in benzene. The source of the strength of a covalent bond is a quantum effect.


What is the similarities of an ionic bond and an covalent bond?

In ionic bonding electron are transfer whereas in covalent bonding their is sharing of electron


Is CaCI an example of ionic bonding?

No, CaCl2 is not an example of ionic bonding. It is an ionic compound resulting from the bonding between calcium (a metal) and chlorine (a nonmetal). Ionic bonding occurs between a metal and a nonmetal, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another to form ions.
