Question 2

How is a covalent bond caused ?

Answer 2

A covalent bond is caused when a nucleus that is positive charged is pulling on the other atoms electrons.

Question 3

What is the strength of this pull called ?

Answer 3

It is called Electronegativity

Question 4

What are the 2 popular ways of writing molecules ?

Answer 4

1. Lewis dot structure
2. Molecular formula

Question 5

What is an ionic bond?

Answer 5

Answer in google dox

Question 6

What is a salt?

Answer 6

A salt is a grid filled of ions.

Question 7

What happens when the Electronegativity pull is 0.5?

Answer 7

When the Electronegativity pull is 0.5, the electrons are shared equally + there will be no pull.

Question 8

What happens when the electronegativity is bigger than 0.5 but is smaller than 1.7?

Answer 8

This would mean that one of the elements is pulling on the other element’s electrons hard.
