Ionic type of bonding is highly favored among the ionic species, where one atom has tendency to donate electrons and the other has tendency to accept electrons in order to attain a stable atomic coniguration with a filled outer shell of electrons.

Hope this helped this is what i am studying in science class at the moment, i find it very interesting actually and quite easy to comprehend. GOOD LUCK!

Are electrons shared or transfered between a ionic bond?
To form ionic bonds, electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
When atoms share electrons the electrical attraction of an atom for the shared electrons is called the atoms?
Electronegativity is the attraction of an atom for the shared pairs of electrons.
How many electrons are shared between C-Cl?
CH3Cl, or chloromethane, is comprised of a single carbon atom surrounded by three singly bonded hydrogen atoms and one singly bonded chlorine atom. This means there are four pairs of electrons being shared.
Does one atom pull on the shared electrons more than the other atom in a polar bond?
yes, they are shared equally
Electrons shared in a molecule are held where to the atoms with the larger nucleus?
Electrons shared in a molecule are held more closely to the atom with the larger nucleus
Are electrons shared or transfered between a ionic bond?
To form ionic bonds, electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
What is this bond called Electrons are transfered from atom to atom?
Electronegativity
The atom with the what attraction for shared electrons in the molecule is the what atom.?
The atom with the greater attraction for shared electrons in the molecule is the more electronegative atom.
When atoms share electrons the electrical attraction of an atom for the shared electrons is called the atoms?
Electronegativity is the attraction of an atom for the shared pairs of electrons.
Which electrons are shared in molecules?
In metallic bonding, the valence electrons freely 'jump' from atom to atom, forming kind of an electron sea.
In which compound have electrons been transfered to the oxygen atom?
Na2O
How many electrons are transfered in calcium?
Calcium is a metal element. There are 20 electrons in a single atom.
What is formed when electrons are transfered between atom?
An ionic bond forms when electrons are transferred between atoms.
What are the criteria for redox reaction?
electrons must be transfered from one atom to another
Why do conducturs conduct electricity?
conductors conduct electricity well because the electrons are easily transfered from atom to atom.
Is it true that when atoms form bonds electrons may be transfered or shared between atoms?
true
How many electrons shared in aluminum oxide?
Al2O3, each formula unit would have 6 shared electrons. Al wants 3 electrons per atom and O can give 2 electrons per atom.
