Which type of bond is found between the atoms of a molecule?

There are many types of bonds that can occur. As a summary:Covalent bonds occur when electrons are shared. These are called polar covalent bonds when the electrons are shared between nuclei unequally. Example: methane, CH4; oxygen, O2.Ionic bonds occur when there is no sharing of electrons, one nucleus has the major if not entire electron and the other nucleus loses it. Example: sodium chloride, NaCl.There also metallic bonds in metals; van der Waal or dispersion forces between molecules or atoms; hydrogen bonding between molecules; and polar-polar interactions.


How many covalent bonds are in an alkane?

In an alkane, each carbon atom forms four covalent bonds with other atoms. This means that each carbon atom in an alkane molecule is bonded to two other carbon atoms and two hydrogen atoms, resulting in a total of four covalent bonds per carbon atom.
