Most metals and nonmetals bond together to get eight electrons in their outer occupied shell?
Most metals and non-metals bond together to get eight electrons in their outer occupied shell. This is what is referred to as ionic bonding.
Positive ions usually form from?
Usually, negative ions are formed by losing of electrons from the atom. Due to which, that atom get positively charged( due to having more number of protons than electrons).
Is it true that a covalent bond is formed between atoms when they share electrons to complete their valence energy levels?
Atoms covalently bond to share electrons most done between metals and non metals
How specifically are positive and negative ions formed?
A positive ion (cation) is formed by removing electron(s) from an atom or group of atoms until there are fewer electrons than protons. A negative ion (anion) is formed when an atom or group of atoms gains electron(s) until there are more electrons than protons. Only non-metals form negative ions - this ability (to gain electrons) is intrinsic to the nature of non-metals. Only metals form positive ions - this ability (to lose electrons) is intrinsic to the nature of metals.
Does sulfur trioxide have shared electrons?
Yes. Both Sulphur and Oxygen are non-metals, so the bonds formed are covalent. This means they share electrons with one another.
It can be formed by sharing electrons?
Covalent bonds are formed when non-metals share electrons. Ionic bonds are formed when metals and non-metals lose and gain electrons.
What is electron diffusion?
Metals have "free" electrons, the free electrons in metals help to transfer heat together with the vibrating atoms.

Most metals and non-metals bond together to get eight electrons in their outer occupied shell. This is what is referred to as ionic bonding.
What are ionic bonds used in?
Ionic bonds are formed between "metals" and "non-metals" and involve the transfer of electrons.
What type of chemical bond is formed by transfer of electrons is formed between alkali metals and halogens?
Pie is good
What kind of chemical bond is formed by transfer of electrons between alkali metals halogens?
An ionic bond is formed by electron transfer between alkali metals and halogens.
What kind of chemical bond is formed by transfer of electrons between alkali metals and halogenes?
An ionic bond is formed by electron transfer between alkali metals and halogens.
Positive ions usually form from?
Usually, negative ions are formed by losing of electrons from the atom. Due to which, that atom get positively charged( due to having more number of protons than electrons).
A triple bond can be formed between metals found in the second group in the periodic table?
There are only two bonding electrons in these metals so triple bonds cannot be formed
What is a substance that has lost or gained electrons?
Most atoms have the ability to lose electrons, given the conditions are favorable, e.g. in a chemical reaction, but the ones that loose their electrons easiest are the ones with only a few electrons in their outer shell, such as the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals which only have 1 and two electrons, respectively.
Why density of metals is higher then non metals?
Generally, because outer electrons are mixed together, not needing defined orbits
