Front

What is the significance of delocalized electrons in metals?

Back

Delocalized electrons allow metals to conduct electricity and heat.

Front

What is a polar bond?

Back

A polar bond is a type of covalent bond where the electrons are not shared equally between the two atoms.

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent compounds?

Back

Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons, while covalent compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons.
