What is a chemical bond formed by atoms losing or gaining electrons?
metallic bond
Can chemical bonds be produced by losing electrons losing nuetrons transferring electrons sharing electrons or gaining electrons?
Chemical bonds can be only produced by gaining, losing or sharing electrons. If a compound is formed by losing or gaining electrons, it is called an ionic bond and if by sharing electrons, it is called a covalent bond.
What is a chemical bond formed by atoms losing or gaining electrons called?
This chemical bonding is called ionic bonding.
Atoms bond by gaining, losing, or sharing?
chmical bond
Which kind of bond electrons given or taken?
In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in one atom gaining electrons (anion) and the other atom losing electrons (cation). In a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms, allowing them to complete their valence shells.
What type bond will it be if calcium and selenium bond?
Calcium and selenium would likely form an ionic bond, with calcium losing 2 electrons to become a positively charged ion and selenium gaining 2 electrons to become a negatively charged ion.
Why are ions not formed in a covalent bond?
Ions are not formed in a covalent bond because in a covalent bond, atoms share electrons instead of transferring them. This sharing of electrons allows both atoms to achieve a stable electron configuration without gaining or losing electrons to become charged ions.
What chemical bond holds oxygen atoms to phosphors atoms?
They are held together by covalent bonds (they share the electrons in the outer shells, instead of losing or gaining them)
What are the charges associated with a covalent bond?
The charges associated with a covalent bond are typically neutral, as the atoms involved share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This sharing of electrons allows the atoms to form a strong bond without gaining or losing a significant amount of charge.
What are the electrons doing in the two kinds of bonding?
in an ionic bond the electrons are gaining or receiving electrons. in a covalent bond 2 atoms are sharing electrons
Are polar covalent compounds the same as ionic compounds?
Not at all, in a covalent bond there is no losing or gaing of electrons as both of the atom reacting to make a covalent bond needs electrong therefore they share the electrons to stablized, but in ionic compound like NaCl, there is a losing of electron and gaining of electrons, therefore one element loses and one element gains. Ionic bond or "electrovalent bond" are strong bonds as compare to covalent bonds.
Is covalent bond only sharing electrons or receiving?
A covalent bond is only the sharing of electrons. An ionic bond involves the losing and receiving of electrons.
