a covalent bond is a bond between two nonmetals. the electrons are "shared" between the two atoms. example: H2O. an ionic bond forms between a metal and nonmetal. in an ionic bond, the electrons aren't shared, but are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal, leaving the metal with a positive charge and the nonmetal with a negative charge. examples: MgO, NaCl.
It is ionic
Br2 is a covalent compound. It consists of two bromine atoms sharing electrons to form a covalent bond.
The bond in LiBr is primarily ionic, not covalent. Lithium donates an electron to bromine, forming an ionic bond.
The opposite of an ionic bond is a covalent bond. In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, while in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms.
No, Al-Cl is an ionic bond, not a covalent bond.
covalent
NO is covalent.
NO is covalent.
It is ionic
The bond is covalent.
The covalent bond is weaker.
No, it is ionic
The F-F bond (in F2) is covalent, and non polar covalent at that.
No, but the bond in sodium chloride is covalent.
The bond is covalent. If the bond is made by transferring electrons then it is an ionic bond, but if they are sharing the it is covalent.
