Question

What are the all types of bond

Answer 1

• A chemical bond is a force of attraction between atoms or ions. Bonds form when atoms share or transfer valence electrons.
• Atoms form chemical bonds to achieve a full outer energy level, which is the most stable arrangement of electrons.

There are three different types of chemical bonds: covalent, ionic, and metallic bonds.

• 1) A covalent bond is the force of attraction that holds together two nonmetal atoms that share a pair of electrons. One electron is provided by each atom, and the pair of electrons is attracted to the positive nuclei of both atoms. The water molecule contains covalent bonds.

• 2) An ionic bond is the force of attraction that holds together oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds form crystals instead of molecules. Table salt contains ionic bonds.

• 3) A metallic bond is the force of attraction between a positive metal ion and the valence electrons that surround it—both its own valence electrons and those of other ions of the same metal. The ions and electrons form a lattice-like structure. Only metals form metallic bonds.
