Covalent bonding- a bond formed by a shared pair of electrons.
Ionic bonding- chemical bond that results when electrons are transferred from a metal to a nonmetal the electrostatic attraction between ions of opposite change.
- In ionic there are to type of ions. They have cation which has a positve charge and Anion which has a negative charge. The anion "steals" an electron to become the negative ion from the cation which is the positive ion.
What is electronegativity?
The tendency of a atom or radical to attract electrons in the formation of a ionic bond.
List the electronegativity values for H, Na, Cl, and O.
H-2.1
Na- .9
Cl- 3.0
O- 3.5
