The nature of the elements in the bond. Elements with a high difference in electronegativity have ionic bonds, elements with a small difference have nonpolar covalent bonds, and elements with no difference (if an atom binds to an atom of the same element) have nonpolar covalent bonds.

What is the coordinate bonding and what is the difference between it and the covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding involves two or more atoms sharing electrons. Coordinate covalent bonding is just an attraction that molecules have for other molecules based on the asymmetrical distribution of electrons in those molecules, creating negatively charged and positively charged regions (and hence, an attraction between the negatively charged regions of one molecule and the positively charged regions of another molecule).
How can you figure out if a bond is ionic or covalent?
The difference in electronegativity between the atoms that are bonded. A difference of more than about 1.7 indicates that the bond will be ionic. Health warning - this is only a rule of thumb.
Are there differences between covalent bonding and covalent compound?
Covalent compounds and molecular compounds are the same thing if I recalled correctly, just different terms of calling it. And covalent bonds are the bonds formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms, and they are the strong forces of attraction WITHIN the molecule.Please do not get it mixed up with the weak van der Waals' forces that is found BETWEEN molecules and is caused by a temporary shift of electrons to one side of the molecule, resulting in a slightly positive/negative end.
What type of bonding is involved in the compound SiF4?
polar covalent - use the electronegativity difference
What is the difference between single covalent bonding and multiple covalent bonding?
In a single bond there is only a strong sigma bond on the other hand in multiple bond there is a sigma & one or two pi bond, weaker than sigma, which provied addition reactions in a molecule.

What are the 2 types of bonding What is the difference between them?
Types of bonding: ionic (in salts), covalent (in organic compounds), metallic (in metals).
What is the composition of substances with covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding is formed generally between nonmetals.
What difference in bonding between the solid state and gaseous state of iodine?
Iodine molecule has covalent bonds.
Why is the bonding in O2 molecules called pure covalent?
because there is no electronegativity difference between the two oxygen atoms.
What are the rules for determining if a compound is covalent?
The electronegativity difference between the bonding atoms is concerned to determine it ionic behaviour.
How can you figure out if a bond is ionic or covalent?
The difference in electronegativity between the atoms that are bonded. A difference of more than about 1.7 indicates that the bond will be ionic. Health warning - this is only a rule of thumb.
What are the similar between ionic and covalent bonding?
Ionic and covalent bonding involve electrons. Ionic bonding involves the loss and gain of electrons, form ions. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.
What type of bonding is expected between strontium and oxygen?
covalent bonding
In the process of covalent bonding?
electrons are shared between one or more atoms
