Which bond type is formed between two polar molecules that contain hydrogen?
a hydrogen bond
What type of bond is formed between iodine and carbon?
Iodine and Carbon form a covalent bond. Moreover, this bond is nonpolar. Cheers, Caroline
What type of bond is formed when electrons are gained and lost?
Ionic bonds are formed between positively charged atoms (lost electrons) and negatively charged atoms (gained electrons).
How do atoms of different elements combine?
there are various bonds formed to form compounds 1 ionic bonds- bond formed from electrostatic attraction eg NaCl 2 covalent bond -two elements share electrons eg O2, Cl2 3 dalton bond or co ordinate covalent bond - dative bond is a covalent bond where both electrons come from the same atom. NH3 -BF3
What is Formed when two atoms bond covalently?
i am doing the same worksheet right now.... Molecule
When is a covalent bond often formed?
A covalent bond is typical for compounds between nonmetals.
What contains a nonpolar covalent bond?
Many compounds between nonmetals have this type of bond.
Can the term molecule be applied to both an ionic and a covalent bond?
No. Molecules are formed from covalent bonds, usually between nonmetals. Ionic compounds are formed by ionic bonds from the electrostatic attraction of positively and negatively charged ions, generally between metals and nonmetals.
What are the three main differences between ionic and covalent bonds (attraction atoms electrons)?
- ionic bond: electrostatic attraction, specific for metals+nonmetals compounds, can form lattices.- covalent bond: shared electrons between atoms, specific for nonmetals compounds, not so strong bond.
Expain why ionic compounds are formed when a metal atom bonds with a nonmetal but covalent compounds are formed when two nonmetals bond?
In order to stay stable, nonmetals must share electrons. A metal bonding with a nonmetal is able to stay stable without sharing.
What type of chemical bond would be formed between two identical nonmetals?
co-ordinate covelant bond
Is the bond formed between Carbon and Bromine ionic?
No. Carbon and bromine, both being nonmetals, will form a covalent bond.
Which element is most likely to gain electrons when bonds are formed?
Nonmetals because they have a lot of valence electrons.
What type of bond is between Metals with nonmetals of similar electronegativities?
Generally, an ionic bond is formed between a metal atom and a non metal atom.
What type of bond is between Metals with nonmetals of differing electronegativities?
If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is above 1.7, then ionic bond is formed. If the difference in electronegativity between the metal and the non metal is below 1.7, then polar covalent bond is formed.
What is formed when two nonmetals combine?
A covalent bond is formed when two nonmetals combine.
When electrons are transferred form one atom to another what type of bond is formed What types of elements form this bond?
This is an ionic bond between metals and nonmetals.
