What else can I help you with?
Type of bonding water molecules exhibit?
Within the molecule itself, water exhibits ionic bonding. Between the water molecules, there is hydrogen bonding.
When magnesium and chlorine react what type of bond is formed?
Magnesium is an s-block element and it forms only ionic bonds with other elements.
Atoms join so that each atom will have?
a net charge of zero between the nucleus and the electrons in each atom. This process is either achieved by ionic bonding or covalent bonding. ionic bonding is when the electrons are taken from one atom and given to another. Covalent bonds happen when electrons are shared between the atoms.
What statement best describes ionic bonding?
A chemical bond holds atoms together.
What is Bonding by electron transfer?
Valence electrons are the parts of the atoms involved It is the electron. As electrons are fermions (1/2 integer spin) they obey the Pauli exclusion principle so that no two electrons can occupy the same energy level. This gives rise to the electrons of different atoms unable to be in the same energy level and this is where the bond comes from. If they could occupy the same energy levels like bosons (eg the photon in laser light) then there would be know chemistry.
Who discovered ionic and covalent bonds?
The concept of ionic and covalent bonding was developed by Gilbert N. Lewis in the early 20th century. He proposed that atoms bond by either transferring electrons to form ions (ionic bonding) or by sharing electrons to form covalent bonds.
Events for ionic bonding?
Ionic bonding is based on electrostatic attraction between ions.
How do you compare ionic and covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.
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 kind of bonding to salts use?

Is potassium and fluroine covalent or ionic bonding?
Ionic
Which type of bonding is greater ionic or covalent?
ionic
What does Ionic bond?
Ionic bonding forms compounds.
What are the three kinds of bonding?
Ionic bondCovalent bondMetallic bonding
Is ionic bonding an example of intermolecular or intramolecular bonding?
Ionic bonding is an example of intramolecular bonding, where electrons are transferred between atoms to form ions that are held together by electrostatic forces.
The compounds formed by ionic bonding are referred to as ionic?
Yes.
How is ionic bonding differant to covalent bonding?
In ionic bonding electrons are transferred from one element to another and are localised and not shared. the force of attraction in ionic bonding is electrostatic. In covalent bonding electrons are shared, or in some cases delocalised as in benzene. The source of the strength of a covalent bond is a quantum effect.
