Chemical Bonding
Ionic Bonds
How Ionic compounds are formed: Ionic compounds are formed when cations and anions formed after loss or gain of electrons, the electrostatic force of attraction between the oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of Ionic compounds.
Properties:
- Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points
- Ionic compounds are hard and brittle
- Ionic compounds conduct electricity (when melted or when in an solution)
- Ionic compounds form crystals
Examples
- NaCl (Sodium Chloride): Table salt
- NaHCO3 (Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate): Baking soda
Covalent Bonds
How covalent bonds are formed: Covalent compounds are formed when two or more atoms 2 or more electrons in order to attain stability
Properties
- Covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points
- Covalent compounds are soft and brittle
- Covalent compounds do not conduct electricity
-
Giant Covalent Bonds
Properties
- Giant covalent structures have high melting and boiling points
- Giant covalent structures are many repeating patterns which forms lattice
-
Metallic Bonds
Properties
- Metallic compounds conduct electricity
- Metallic compounds have high melting and boiling points
- Metallic compounds are highly ductile
