Front

What is ionic bonding?

Back

Ionic bonding is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Front

What is covalent bonding?

Back

Covalent bonding is the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Front

What are the properties of ionic compounds?

Back

Ionic compounds typically have high melting and boiling points, and they conduct electricity when dissolved in water.

Front

What are the properties of covalent compounds?

Back

Covalent compounds usually have lower melting and boiling points and do not conduct electricity.

Front

What is a metallic bond?

Back

A metallic bond is the force of attraction between valence electrons and metal ions.
