Write the structure of a compound with co-ordinate bond
Answers
Explanation:
coordinate bond (also called a dative covalent bond) is a covalent bond (a shared pair of electrons) in which both electrons come from the same atom. A covalent bond is formed by two atoms sharing a pair of electrons. The atoms are held together because the electron pair is attracted by both of the nuclei. In the formation of a simple covalent bond, each atom supplies one electron to the bond - but that does not have to be the case.
Answer:
A coordinate bond (also called a dative covalent bond) is a covalent bond (a shared pair of electrons) in which both electrons come from the same atom. A covalent bond is formed by two atoms sharing a pair of electrons. The atoms are held together because the electron pair is attracted by both of the nuclei.
Explanation:
A covalent bond is formed by mutual sharing of electrons (i.e. both the atoms involved in the bond formation share one electron each) whereas, a coordinate bond is formed by the sharing of electrons by one atom only. Covalent bonds are formed between two similar or dissimilar atoms. However, coordinate bonds are formed only between unlike atoms. Covalent bonds may be polar or nonpolar. But, coordinate bonds are always polar because they are formed between two, unlike atoms. The shared pair of electrons is denoted by a short line (-) in covalent bonds and the same is denoted by an arrowhead indicating the direction of the sharing of the electron pair (→) in coordinate bond. Covalent compounds are insoluble in water whereas coordinate compounds are sparingly soluble in water.
