Do two oxygen atoms form a covalent or ionic bond?
covalent bond, since it is 2 nonmetals
Which two atoms from an ionic bond?
Any atoms from Group 1 or 2 form ionic bonds. e.g NaCl MgI2 KBr CaCO3 BaSO4
Can a covalent bond from when electrons are transferred between 2 atoms?
No, It would be an ionic bond. For Covalent is the sharing of atoms, ionic is transferring.
How many atoms will form an ionic bond?
Minimum 2 atoms required for the formation of an ionic bond. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through electrostatic and a attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a metal and nonmetal ion. The larger the difference in electronegativity between two atoms, the more ionic the bond. Bonds with partially ionic and partially covalent character are called polar covalent bonds.
What are the three types of bonds that can form when two atoms share electrons?
When atoms share one pair of their electrons, a single covalent bond is formed between the atoms. Atoms that share two or three pairs of electrons form covalent double bonds or covalent triple bonds.
When 2 oxygen atoms come together they form what kind of bond?
ionic
Do two oxygen atoms form a covalent or ionic bond?
covalent bond, since it is 2 nonmetals
What is a substance of 2 atoms bonded called?
If they are covalently bonded, it would be a molecule. If they are bonded by an ionic bond, they form an ionic compound.
Can a covalent bond from when electrons are transferred between 2 atoms?
No, It would be an ionic bond. For Covalent is the sharing of atoms, ionic is transferring.
What large differences in electronegativity result in bonding between atoms?
If this difference is under 2 the bond is covalent; if the difference is over 2 the bond is ionic.
What is the strongest bond between 2 atoms?
ionic

Which value best classifies a bond between 2 atoms as being ionic?
The values that best classifies a bond between 2 atoms as being ionic are the valence electrons.
What are the three types of bonds that can form when two atoms share electrons?
When atoms share one pair of their electrons, a single covalent bond is formed between the atoms. Atoms that share two or three pairs of electrons form covalent double bonds or covalent triple bonds.
How do you predict the type of bond between two atoms?
Some general rules are:- the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is over 2: ionic bond- the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is in the range 0 -2: covalent bond- the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is approx. zero: polar covalent bond
In an ionic bond the difference in the electronegativities of the two atoms in the bond is or more?
false 2
What do atoms form when they bond chemically?
its when an interaction holds atoms or ions togetherChemical bonds are formed when the valence electrons of one atom interact with the valence electrons of another atom.
