Question

differences between ionic bond covalent bond give an example to each

Answer 1

Covalent BondsIonic BondsState at room temperature:Liquid or gaseousSolidPolarity:LowHighFormation:A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals that have similar electronegativities. Neither atom is "strong" enough to attract electrons from the other. For stabilization, they sharetheir electrons from outer molecular orbit with othersAn ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Non-metals(-ve ion) are "stronger" than the metal(+ve ion) and can get electrons very easily from the metal. These two opposite ions attract each other and form the ionic bond.Shape:Definite shapeNo definite shapeMelting point:lowHighWhat is it?:Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharingof pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.Ionic bond, also known as electrovalent bond, is a type of bond formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. These kinds of bonds occur mainly between a metallic and a non metallic atom.Boiling point:LowHighExamples:Methane (CH4), Hydrochloric acid (HCl)Sodium chloride (NaCl), Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4 )Occurs between:Two non-metalsOne metal and one non-metal
