The ionic bond would be harder as it is harder to show the ionic charges.

A group of atoms united by ionic bonds?

In order to form an ionic bond, you need a metal and a non-metal. That would be one element to the right of the stairstep on the periodic table, and one from the left side. If they are both metals, it forms a metallic bond, and if they are both non-metals, it forms a covalent bond. Ionic bonds 'give and take' electrons compared to the 'sharing' of electrons in covalent bonds or the 'electron sea model' of metallic bonds. Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds. They are also more brittle (less maleable) and don't have an odor. (Think gasoline compared to salt - 'NaCl')


lithium and sulfur model the ionic bonding?

No


How is a covalent bond different from an ionic bond?

Answer 1: Covalent bonds are bonds formed between two non-metals. Ionic bonds are formed between a metal and a non-metal. Answer 2: Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share on or more electrons. Ionic bonds are formed when on atom transfers electrons to another atom.


What are similarities between ionic covalent and metallic bonds?

They are certainly not covalent in the sense of having localised 2 electron pair bonds. They have features in common with both ionic and delocalised covalent bonds.One very simple model describes metals as positive ions in a sea of electrons and while this rationalises the electrical conductivity of metals it does not explain why the metals generally have high melting points.The force that holds the lattice together is not a simple electrostatic force as in an ideal ionic lattice. In most metals some of the bonding derives from some covalent bonding between metal atoms allied with delocalised bonds occupied by free electrons. These delocalised bonds can be thought of as having superficial resemblance to the delocalised bonds in graphite.Read more: How_are_metallic_bonds_and_ionic_bonds_similar

Why would a scientist need to create a model?

Scientists generally make models to physically illustrate an idea that is difficult to understand or to show something on a better scale that is extremely large or small and would thus be difficult to see.

Ionic hair dryers can cost anywhere from $15-$100 depending on the quality and model of dryer you want. You can find ionic hair dryers at stores like Walmart and Target.


How much do ionic air purifiers cost?

Ionic air purifiers can cost anywhere from $100.00 to $500.00 depending on the model you buy and how big the unit you purchase is.


In chemistry what is the Lewis theory?

The Lewis theory in chemistry is a model that describes chemical bonding based on the sharing or transfer of electrons. It focuses on the outer shell electrons of atoms, known as valence electrons, and how they participate in forming chemical bonds between different elements. In the Lewis theory, a covalent bond is formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons, while an ionic bond is formed through the transfer of electrons between atoms.
