Bonding

Question 1

what type of elements are found in metallic bonding

Answer 1

Only metal elements

Question 2

what type of elements are involved in Ionic bonding

Answer 2

found in compounds made from metals and non-metal elements (only compounds)

Question 3

what type of elements are involved in covalent bonding

Answer 3

this is found in substances non-metal bonded to non-metal (elements and compounds)

Question 4

what type of bonding only contains metals

Answer 4

elements which would be metallic bonding

Question 5

describe a covalent bind

Answer 5

a covalent bond is usually between two non metal atoms. It is the attraction of positive nuclei for the shared pair of negatively charged electrons it is stable as opposite charges attract

Question 6

what is an ionic bond

Answer 6

an ionic bond is between metal and non metal ions it is the electrostatic attraction between positive and negative ions. They form large ionic lattice structures

Question 7

what to do to test if your compound is ionic (solubility)

Answer 7

Test the solubility of the compound in water. Many ionic compounds are soluble, so if your compound dissolves well, it could indicate that it is ionic.

Question 8

testing if your compound is ionic(melting and boiling point)

Answer 8

ionic compounds generally melt at high temperatures due to the large amount of energy needed to break the strong bonds
