Question

list the factors that determine the type of bond that will be formed between two atoms

Answer 1

Factors that determine the type of bond that will be formed between two atoms
1.If the 2 atoms combine and attain inert gas configuration then they will           form ionic bonds.
2.If the 2 atoms combine and attain pseudo inert gas configuration then           they will form covalent type of bonds.
3.If the molecule contain less number of cations or anions then they will           form ionic bond
   Ex: NaCl
4.If the molecule contain more number of cations or anions then they will          form covalent type of bonds  
    Ex : Al2O3
