Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons and ionic bonds are formed when positive and negative ions bond to form an ionic compound.?
Ionic - electron transfer Covalent - electron share (co - share)
Is glucose a ionic or molecular compound?
Table sugar is a molecular compound. Ionic compounds are in general formed between a metal and a nonmetal. The exceptions are polyatomic ions that can also form ionic compounds, like ammonium or hydronium. Table salt (sodium chloride) is an example of a common ionic compound.
Does Be only have 4 electrons shared in BeCl2?
No. Beryllium has only two valence electrons and forms ionic bonds with chlorine, not covalent bonds. Beryllium atoms form 2+ ions, and chlorine atoms form 1- ions in order to form the ionic compound beryllium chloride, BeCl2.
Is K2S ionic or covalent?
An ionic compound, as it involves two atoms of potassium(+) and sulfate group(--) ions reacting
Is polydextrose an ionic or covalent bond?
Yes. Dextrose does not dissociate in water, and therefore does not release ions.
Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons and ionic bonds are formed when positive and negative ions bond to form an ionic compound.?
Ionic - electron transfer Covalent - electron share (co - share)
Atoms or ions can be blended in any proportion within a?
covalent compound
What is the differnece between an ionic compound and a covolant compound?
In an ionic compound, atoms transfer electrons from one to the other, creating oppositely charged ions. The ionic bond is an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds tend to form between metals and nonmetals. In covalent compounds, atoms share electrons. Most covalent compounds form between nonmetals.
A substance that does not form ions in water is a what?
This is an insoluble or covalent compound.
What type of compound forms covalent bonds?
ions. (atoms that have lost or gained electrons)

Is polydextrose an ionic or covalent bond?
Yes. Dextrose does not dissociate in water, and therefore does not release ions.
What are the ions present in the compound CO2?
Carbon dioxide is a covalent compound, it contains no ions.
In a binary covalent compound how many ions are there?
Two ions
Do covalent bonds hold together ions or atoms?
Covalent bonds hold atoms together. Ionic bonds hold ions together
