Elements always want to be stable. That's their main goal. They can become stable by getting (usually) 8 electrons in their outermost energy level. They either gain or lose electrons, depending upon which is easier. This gaining or losing of electrons is called bonding. There are two main types of bonds, covalent and ionic. Covalent is where electrons are shared, Ionic is where electrons are given from one element to another.
no. they will form covalent bond
The cause is the interaction between valence electrons.
h20 does not form a bond
Bonding occurs when atoms gain,lose,or share electrons in their outer energy level.
A chemical bond
A metal and a nonmetal can form an ionic bond.
No, oxygen and nitrogen do not form an ionic bond. They are both nonmetals and tend to form covalent bonds where they share electrons rather than transfer them.
Glycosidic Bond. For example, in a disaccharide, two monosaccharides form a glycosidic bond with the loss of water.
No, hydrogen and oxygen do not form an ionic bond. They typically form a covalent bond when they combine to make water (H2O). In this bond, they share electrons instead of transferring them.
Hydrogen form a covalent bond with carbon.
A metal tends to form an ionic bond with a non-metal. Metals bonding with other metals form a metallic bond, and non-metals bonding with other non-metals form a covalent bond.
