Ionic and Covalent Bond

What is ionic bonding?

• Sharing of electrons between nonmetals

• Complete transfer of valence electrons between a metal and a non-metal

• Sharing of electrons between metals

• Transfer of electrons between nonmetals

What is covalent bonding?

• A) Sharing of electrons between nonmetals

• B) Complete transfer of valence electrons between a metal and a non-metal

• C) Sharing of electrons between metals

• D) Transfer of electrons between nonmetals.

In covalent bonding, what happens to the electrons?

• They are shared between nonmetals

• They are transferred from metal to non-metal

• They are lost by the metal

• They are gained by the non-metal
