When are Molecules created?
When atoms become bonded through covalent, ionic, or hydrogen bonds they form molecules.
Are ionic covalent and hydrogen bonds all types of molecular bonds?
Covalent bonds form molecules where ionic bonds form ionic lattices. Hydrogen bonds are a form of intermolecular bonds which are formed with the participation of polar hydrogen atoms which are attached to either nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.
How many atoms are in an ionic bond?
There can be various amounts because molecules can form ionic bonds with other ions if they have opposite charges.
How do atoms combine to form molecules through ionic bonding?
Atoms do not form molecules through ionic bonding. They form molecules through covalent bonding, in which the atoms share electrons.
What type of bonds do charged atoms form?
Ionic bonds.
Ionic bonds form between molecules that have what?
Polar molecules
How do ionic bonds and ionic compounds differ from covenant bonds and molecules?
Ionic bonds is the attracting between opposing forces (positive and negative) while covalent bonds are atoms sharing electrons to get an inert gas configuration (8 electrons in valence shell). Covalent bonds exist as discrete molecules while ionic compounds do not exist as discrete molecules and form large crystal lattices.
What is the difference between and ionic and covalent bond?
Compounds with covalent bonds form molecules. Compounds with ionic bonds form ionic lattices.
When atoms bond with other atoms what do types of bonds do they form?
ionic
What bonds form atoms gaining or giving up electrons?
Ionic bonds
What are bonds that form by atoms gaining or giving up electrons?
Ionic bonds
What kind of atoms form ionic compounds?
Combinations of atoms from a metal and a non-metal form ionic bonds in most cases.
