When electrons are transferred in a reaction, it is referred to oxidation/reduction or redox.
In a combination reaction between sodium (Na) and chlorine, electrons are transferred from sodium to chlorine. This results in the formation of sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-), which then combine to form sodium chloride (NaCl) through ionic bonding.
The covalent bond is formed by sharing electrons.
When electrons are transferred between two atoms a covalent bond is formed is known as an ionic bond.
Electrons are transferred between atoms.
A redox reaction contain oxidation and reduction half reaction you can prove it by using oxidation numbers
Whether electrons are shared or transferred between two atoms is determined by the difference in electronegativity between the atoms. If the electronegativity difference is small, electrons are shared covalently, while if the difference is large, electrons are transferred to form an ionic bond.
No, It would be an ionic bond. For Covalent is the sharing of atoms, ionic is transferring.
An ionic bond forms when electrons are transferred between atoms.
Ions form when electrons are transferred between atoms, resulting in a difference in the number of protons and electrons. This creates ions with either a positive charge (cation) or a negative charge (anion) based on the imbalance of electrons.
shared between the atoms or transferred from one atom to another to form chemical bonds.
