Ionic. The metal will donate electron(s) to the halogen that will accept electrons. NaCl, for example.

What kind of bond occurs between a metal and a non-metal?
ionic bonding
What type of atoms does an ionic bond occurs between?
A metal and a non-metal
What kind of bond is between AlN?
Al is a metal and N is a non-metal, so they will form a covalent bond.
What type of bond is between Metals with nonmetals of differing electronegativities?
If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is above 1.7, then ionic bond is formed. If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is below 1.7, then polar covalent bond is formed.
How do you moving an electron from the metal to the non metal What happens?
If the electrons are "stolen" from the metal by the nonmetal, an ionic bond is formed. If the electrons are shared between the metal and the nonmetal, a covalent bond is formed. If the electrons "resonate" between the metal and the nonmetal, a resonance bond is formed.
What kind of bond does a halogen and an alkaline earth metal make?
alkaline earth metal forms a +2 cation and halogen forms a -1 anion alkaline earth metal is a metal and halogens are non metals therefore the bond between them is ionic
What kind of chemical bond is formed by transfer of electrons between alkali metal and halogen?
ionic bond
How do you tell if a bond is covalent?
if it occurs between non metal atoms. Covalent bonds can only occur between non metal atoms but Ionic bonds occur between metal and non metal atoms.
An active metal and halogen react to form a?
A metal and halogen react to form an ionic bond in which the metal gives an eletron to the halogen Most basic example would be table salt NaCl NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H20
Why can't there be an ionic bond between hydrogen and chlorine?
Ionic bonds occur between a Metal and a Non Metal, these elements are both non metals.
What does the formation of an ionic bond involves?
A metal and a halogen are involved in making an ionic bond.
What us a ionic bond?
The bond between a metal and non-metal.
What us ionic bond?
The bond between a metal and non-metal.
What type of bond does MgBr2 have?
An ionic bond is a bond between a metal and a non-metal. A covalent bond is a bond between two non-metals. Magnesium is a metal and Bromine is a non-metal, which means it is ionically bonded.
Why does the halogen group usually make ionic bonds?
easier to gain electron from alkali metal than sharing with non-metal for covalent bond
Is MgSO4 a ionic or covalent bond?
It is in a Ionic bond.
How is covalent bond different from an ironic bond?
A covalent bond is a bond between a non-metal and another non-metal, and shares electrons, while an ionic bond is a bond between a non-metal and a metal and, instead of sharing electrons, they form ions.
