How do covalent bonds form?

Back

Covalent bonds form by sharing valence electrons between atoms.

Front

What is an ionic bond?

Back

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed between a metal and a nonmetal, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

What types of atoms typically form ionic bonds?

Back

Ionic bonds are typically formed between a metal and a nonmetal.

Front

What happens to valence electrons in ionic bonding?

Back

In ionic bonding, one atom donates its valence electrons to another atom.

Front

What is the charge of a metal atom after it loses electrons?

Back

A metal atom becomes positively charged after losing electrons.

Front

What is the charge of a nonmetal atom after it gains electrons?

Back

A nonmetal atom becomes negatively charged after gaining electrons.

Front

What is the octet rule?

Back

The octet rule states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of eight electrons.
