Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The
Concept introduction:
An ionic bond is the attraction between two ions which contains opposite charges. A metal cation is strongly attracted towards nonmetal anions which are held together by an ionic bond. When the valence electrons are shared by two atoms, the bond that is formed is known as a covalent bond.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1CE
The bond formed between a metal cation and nonmetal anion is ionic bond and the bond formed between two nonmetal atoms is a covalent bond.
Explanation of Solution
A metal cation is attracted towards a nonmetal anion which leads to the formation of an ionic bond. For example,
Conclusion
Metal cation and nonmetal anion forms an ionic bond whereas the bond between two nonmetal atoms is a covalent bond.

Concerning the Chemical bonds. Choose the INCORRECT alternative:
A) The forces that hold together the atoms of a molecule or a compound are Chemical bonds.
B) The likelihood that an atom will form a chemical bond with another atom depends on the number of electrons in its outermost shell, also called the valence shell.
C) An atom with a valence shell holding eight electrons is chemically stable, which means it is likely to form Chemical bonds with other atoms.Â
D) All the previous alternatives are incorrect.
A covalent bond is formed by the
of a pair of electrons between two atoms.
