Does the attraction between a positive ion and a negative ion results in a covalent bond?
No, the attraction between a positive ion and a negative ion results in an ionic bond, not a covalent bond. In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, while in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms.
How many covalent bonds does br2 have?
Bromine (Br₂) has one covalent bond. This bond is formed between the two bromine atoms by sharing two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
A bond formed when atoms share electrons is called?
covalent bond (There is also metallic bonding, which is many, many atoms sharing an electron, not just neighboring electrons.)
Differentiate between ionic bond and covalent bond?
Covalent bonds occur when electrons are shared between atoms. Ionic bonds occur when one atom transfers electrons to another atom, forming positive and negative ions. The electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged atoms form an ionic bond.
How many single covalent bonds are in HCL?
There is one single covalent bond in HCl, formed between the hydrogen atom and the chlorine atom.
How many electrons covalent bond have?
A covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons between atoms. Each atom contributes one or more electrons to the bond, which are shared between the participating atoms. The number of electrons shared in a covalent bond depends on the atoms involved and the type of bond being formed.
When atoms share electrons a bond is formed.?
covalent bond (There is also metallic bonding, which is many, many atoms sharing an electron, not just neighboring electrons.)
What type of bond would phosphorus and oxygen form?
oxygen normally forms a convalent bond with one or two other oxygen atoms. as well as oxygen atoms forming oxygen molecules, oxygen atoms tend to form bonds with most of the other elements to form oxides. oxygen atoms on there own are rare. as for phosphorous.........
How many covalent bonds are found in carbon monoxide?
There is one covalent bond in carbon monoxide. The bond is between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom, formed by the sharing of electrons.
When atoms share these a covalent bond is formed?
There are many examples of compounds formed with covalent bonding. Here are some: Water Methane Ethanol Polystyrene Sulphur Dioxide There are many more [both organic and in-organic compounds]
What happens what a nonmetal and a metal element bond?
When a nonmetal and a metal bond, the nonmetal gains electrons from the metal to form an ionic bond. The nonmetal becomes negatively charged (anion) and the metal becomes positively charged (cation), resulting in an electrostatic attraction between the two ions.
In a binary covalent compound how many ions are there?
In a binary covalent compound, there are no ions. Covalent compounds consist of nonmetal elements that share electrons rather than transfer them to form ions.
