Front

What is a characteristic of metallic bonds?

Back

Valence electrons are mobile.

Front

What is a characteristic of ionic bonds?

Back

Electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

Front

What type of bond is formed by Co and F based on electronegativities?

Back

Ionic bond.

Front

What is the main reason for ionic bonding?

Back

To achieve a full valence shell through electron transfer.

Front

What is the difference between polar and non-polar covalent bonds?

Back

Polar covalent bonds have unequal sharing of electrons, while non-polar covalent bonds have equal sharing.
