What kind of bond does sodium chloride and chlorine make?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) does not react with chlorine. The bond between sodium and chlorine atoms to form sodium chloride is ionic. The sodium ion loses one electron to the chlorine atom, forming a Na+ ion and a Cl- ion. The electrostatic attraction between the two oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bond.
What kind of chemical bond will be formed between atom a and atom b if atom a loses electrons and atom b gains these electrons?
An ionic bond will form. Covalent bond, however, is when the two atoms share electrons when they bond.
