What is Ionic Bonding and Covalent Bonding about?
Ionic bonds are formed through strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, resulting in high melting points due to the giant ionic lattice structure. Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water as the lattice breaks, allowing mobile ions to carry charge. Covalent bonds involve shared pairs of electrons, with varying strengths in simple molecular versus giant covalent structures, exemplified by the differences between diamond and graphite.
