ionic bond
NaCl forms ionic bonds.
A covalent bond would be formed
NaCl is formed by ionic bonds because sodium (Na) donates an electron to chlorine (Cl), resulting in the formation of Na+ and Cl- ions that are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, which does not occur in the formation of NaCl.
Ionic bond is used to form sodium chloride (NaCl). Ionic bonds form when one atom donates an electron to another atom, resulting in the formation of positively and negatively charged ions that are attracted to each other. In the case of NaCl, sodium donates an electron to chlorine, creating Na+ and Cl- ions that are held together by electrostatic attraction.
Yes, NaCl is weak ionic bond.
Covalent bonding.
NaCl
When electrons are transferred, ionic bond is formed. It is a stronger bond.
covalent
It is an ionic bond.
