Ionic Bonds are the transfer of electrons usually between a non metal and a metal ( Na + Cl is an ionic bond). It is generally a weak bond so it is easy to break it (Mixing salt with water) The other major type of bond is covalent where both atoms share electrons. With this sharing of covalent bonds it could be unequal because of the electronegativity (how strong the attraction of electrons is) of the different atoms. Water is very polar because Oxygen is more electronegative than the two oxygens.

Is ai2o3 an ionic bond or a covalent bond?
There is no such substance as ai2o3 in chemistry. However, Al2O3 (with a lowercase L, not an i) is an ionic compound.
If a bond's character is more than 50 percent ionic then the bond is called?
Ionic

What are three major bond in chemistry?
covalent hydrogen and ionic
Is Ionic bond 100 percent ionic in nature yes or no?
yes
Percent ionic character of BrF bond?
The BrF bond has 30 percent iconic character.
What bond occurs due to an attraction between opposite charges?
Between oppositely charged ions the bond is called an ionic bond. Cations (positive ions) and Anions (negative ions) attract together like a magnet and create one of the strongest bonds in chemistry (ionic bond)
What types of all chemistry bonds and their examples?
Ionic bond: sodium chlorideCovalent bond: carbon tetrachlorideMetallic bond: copper
What is meant by covalent and the ionic bond in the chemistry?
A covalent bond occurs when atoms share outer electrons.
What is A bond that is 5 percent ionic is considered?
natural.
What is the percent of ionic character for the H-O bond in H2O?
I
The dipole measured for is 0.380 The bond distance is 161 What is the percent ionic character of the bond?
4.9%
What type of bond occurs when a positive ion and a negative ion are attracted to one anothe?
It is called an ionic bond when two ions of opposite charge are attracted to each other.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about different types of bonds.
