Covalent
Hydrogen bond
Ionic bond: an attraction between a positively charged atom or molecules with a negatively charged molecule
Covalent: Atoms SHARING pairs of electrons
Hydrogen bond: an attraction between a slightly positive and a slightly negative particle (weakest bond)
Atoms with a full outer electron shell will form chemical bonds with other atoms.
T or F
False
Electronegativity is:
the tendency of an atom to attract electrons
