If you mean what bond does an element form the general answer is

metals form ionic bonds

noble gases have great difficulty forming bonds, when they do they are covalent

rest of non metals form either ionic bonds with metals or covalent bonds with the rest

metalloids form mainly covalent

What type of bond is Ca-Br?

The bond between calcium (Ca) and bromine (Br) is an ionic bond. Calcium will donate electrons to bromine, forming a positively charged calcium ion and a negatively charged bromine ion, resulting in strong electrostatic attraction between the two ions.


Does a silver coin have an ionic or covalent bond?

Actually silver is its own "metallic bond" and is solid at room temp and conducts electricity because on most metals the have a coating of electrons that allow them to carry a charge or current


Is BaSO4 covalent or ionic?

I know its Polar covalent bond, but I'm not sure you are that far in chemistry. Polar covalent means that electrons are shared unequally but still shared while and ionic bond means electrons transfered.


How do you know if a bond is ionic or convalent?

An ionic bond forms between a metal and a nonmetal, where electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal. A covalent bond forms between two nonmetals, where electrons are shared between the atoms. The electronegativity difference between the atoms helps determine the type of bond—larger differences indicate ionic bonds and smaller differences indicate covalent bonds.


How do you know what elements will form ionic compounds together?

Ionic compounds are formed between elements with significantly different electronegativities. When one element has a low electronegativity (such as metals) and the other has a high electronegativity (such as nonmetals), they are likely to form an ionic bond. Periodic trends can also help predict which elements are likely to form ionic compounds.

Which bond is stronger and stable LiI or CsF?

The CsF bond is stronger and more stable than the LiI bond. This is because the ionic bond strength increases with increasing ionic charge and decreasing ionic radius. Cs+ has a larger ionic charge and a larger atomic radius compared to Li+, resulting in a stronger and more stable CsF bond.

How do you know if a pair of elements is going to react to form an ionic bond or covalent bond?

Generally, if the difference of electronegativity between the two elements are less than 1.7 according to Pauling's scale, they form a covalent bond or otherwise an ionic bond. Although there are exceptions such as hydrogen fluoride (which is covalent but the electronegativity difference is 1.9 approximately).
