Question

Differentiate betweeen IONIC BONDS and COVALENT BONDS...??
Give atleast four points...??​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing.

2. Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that

result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less

extreme.

3. Ions are arranged in a three-dimensional array, or crystals. Covalently bonded substances exist as

discrete molecular units.

4. Ionic compounds often dissociate into ions in solution, whereas covalently bonded molecules retain their

molecular identity in solution.
