Question 3

Emily Jaska


3 Types of Bonds


Covalent Bond:

Covalent bonds share one or more electrons between atoms with opposite charges and it is a type of chemical bond. They all share together, and the bonds are best when the outer shell isn't fully filled.




Ionic Bond:

In ionic bonds atoms either share of transfer electrons. Sometimes one atom gains electrons and the other one loses some. Has low electronegativity and low number of electrons.




Hydrogen Bond:

Hydrogen bond is where the hydrogen and electronegative atom in two molecules are bonded together. Hydrogen bonding is usually stronger than most bonds.
