Electrons are share between atoms in bonds. Ionic bonds are much closer to being transferred, although the electrons are still shared. However, when an ionically bonded substance ionizes, the electrons will go to the stronger attraction. For example, in NaCl, one of the electrons from sodium spends the vast majority of its time around chlorine. When the substance ionizes into Na+ and Cl-, the electron has moved from the sodium to the chlorine.

The movement of electrons between atoms is called an?
electrical current
How do electrons move in an atom?
Electons make part of molecules. Air molecules are constituted mainly of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, (and other elements like nitrogen) Such molecules move freely in space, but it can't move alone, protons and neutrons are part of air molecules, except in electric circuit where electrons move alone inside of conductors.
What is it called when electrons are shared in bonds?
A covalent bond is when electrons are shared in bonds.
What is the phenomenon that explains the movement of any kind of molecule from areas of higher concentration to ones of lower concentration?
The phenomenon that describes the movement of any kind of molecule from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration is called diffusion.
What is movement of organisms from one place to another?
It is called dispersal.
What is electrons from negative to passitive are called?
When positive electrons from one atom forms a connection with negative electrons from another one, this is called an ionic bond and leads to the formation of a molecule.
The loss of electrons by a molecule atom or ion is called?
oxidation. Gaining electrons is called reduction.
What is called when electrons are not shared equally in a molecule?
polar
Loss of electrons from a molecule is called?
Ionization, it becomes a cation
When a molecule gains oxygen or loses electrons its called?
an ion
The movement of electrons through a conductor is called?
The motion of electrons is called elecricity. Electricity is used to represent the liberated out put by the movement of electrons.
What is the movement of electrons between atoms is called?
It is called an electrical current.
The movement of electrons between atoms is called an?
electrical current
What is the movement of atoms between electrons?
It is called an electrical current.
What is the degree in which an atom in a molecule attracts electrons in a chemical bond called?
Electronegativity- attraction of the nucleus of one atom, to the electrons of another. First Ionization Energy(not within a bond)- The amount of energy required to strip one electron from another atom.
What is a neutral particle that forms as a result of electron sharing?
A neutral particle formed when atoms share electrons?
Bonding that involves sharing of electrons within a molecule is called?
Covalent Bonding
