Which element will most likely form a ionic bond?
Ionic bonds form primarily between metals and nonmetals.
Does sulfur has ionic bonds or covalent bonds?
Sulfur will form covalent bonds with itself and other nonmetals, but will form ionic bonds with most metals.
What compound is not likely to have ionic bonds?
There are many compounds that do not have ionic bonds. The most common would be the diatomic gases, such as N2, O2, Cl2, etc.
Which of these elements are most likely to form covalent bonds silicon oxygen chlorine or sulfur?
silcon has the lowest electronegtaivity so would most likely form covalent bonds. Sulfur is next (although with group1 and 2 metals it forms ionic compounds) oxygen and chlorine have high electronegativites so form many ionic compounds - however they also form covalent compunds as well.
What type of bond would most likely form between a metal and a nonmetal?
Ionic bonds are most likely to occur between a metal and a non metal due to the general difference in electronegativity. Examples include sodium chloride, iron oxide, etc. In these bonds, electron(s) are typically transferred from the metal to the non-metal.
Do B and N most likely form ionic bonds?
No, they form covalent bonds.
Which element will most likely form a ionic bond?
Ionic bonds form primarily between metals and nonmetals.
Are magnesium and chlorine most likely to form a metallic bond?
No. They will most likely form an ionic bond. Metallic bonds form between the atoms of a metal, such as gold or iron.
Does sulfur has ionic bonds or covalent bonds?
Sulfur will form covalent bonds with itself and other nonmetals, but will form ionic bonds with most metals.
Do Li and O most likely form ionic bonds?
Lithium almost always forms an ionic bond since it needs to lose just one electron to expose a full outer electron shell. Oxygen can form either ionic or covalent bonds, but its bond with lithium is ionic.
Which is most likely a compound formed with covalent bonds?
Molecule. A nonmetal to nonmetal covalent bond. Electronegativity is not variant enough among the nonmetals to form 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.
Which of the following are likely to form a covalent bond?
A. aluminum and oxygen B. sulfur and oxygen C. magnesium and chlorine D. copper and copper Correct Answer: Sulfur and Oxygen
What is most likely to an ionic bond with Cl?
Any positive ion will be able to bond with the Cl- ion to form an ionic bond. There is no more likely or less likely to bond. If the positive ion is 2+ charged, it simply bonds with 2 Cl- ions. If it is 1+ charged, it simply bonds with 1 Cl- ion. Hence, there is no positive ion which is most likely going to bond with Cl-.
