Chemical bonds, which are formed by electrons in atoms. There are different types of chemical bonds. The most common are

* Covalent, where electrons are shared between atoms. * Ionic, where one atom literally rips an electron from another, becomes negatively charged, and the opposite charges attract each other and bind together. * Polar covalent bonds, where there electrons in a compound are more strongly pulled to one atom than the other, resulting in the looser (or more electro-positive) developing a small positive charge. This charge can bond to the negative charge in another molecule or in another atom in that molecule. * Van Der Waal's forces, where a temporary charge is induced by the electrons in a molecule being concentrated in one atom by chance, thus inducing weak bonds.

Lonci compounds are held together by?

Lonci compounds are held together by ionic bonds. These bonds form due to the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions. This strong electrostatic force holds the lonci compounds together in a stable crystal lattice structure.

In a covalent bond the electrons are shared between atoms.


How are molecular compounds held together?

Molecular compounds are held together by covalent bonds, which are formed when atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. These bonds involve the sharing of electron pairs between atoms, creating a strong bond that holds the atoms together in a molecule.

Is force of attraction that holds atoms together is called chemical bond?

Yes, the force of attraction that holds atoms together is called a chemical bond. Chemical bonds are formed as a result of interactions between electrons of different atoms, leading to the formation of molecules or compounds.
