Front

What is an ionic bond?

Back

A type of chemical bond formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Front

What are the properties of ionic compounds?

Back

Front

What is a covalent bond?

Back

A type of chemical bond where two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.

Front

What are the properties of covalent compounds?

Back

Lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds, do not conduct electricity, and can be gases, liquids, or solids.

Front

What is a metallic bond?

Back

A type of bond found in metals where electrons are shared and free to move, creating a 'sea of electrons'.
