Want this question answered?
When inert gases are combined with, or create bonds with, other elements, they make explosives. Otherwise, naturally, theyâ??re very unreactive.
Metals forms ionic bonds.
non-metals
It would form an ionic bond. The atom with 7 electrons is cation and the atom with 1 is an anion.
Because between these two families of chemical elements a big difference of electronegativities exist.
covalent bonds

Metals forms ionic bonds.
Rule of thumb answer is covalent bonds form between non metal elements.
germanium
non-metal elements combine with covelant bonds
Elements with intermediate electronegativities, such as carbon and hydrogen.
covalent bonds
Graphite is a pure carbon compound with layers. The carbon bonds used are single covalent bonds.
Ionic bonds
Metals and non-metals
