Coefficients
Covalent bonds form when
the electronegativity difference between two atoms is very large.
electrons are completely transferred between two atoms.
pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms.
ions are held together by opposite charges.
An ionic bond forms when
valence electrons are shared back and forth (move between) two atoms.
a sea of mobile electrons surround the cations and they then become negativly charged
valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another, forming charged ions that are then pulled together by attraction between opposite charges
none of the above
