What is Ionic and Covalent Bonding Explained about?
1. Chemical bonds form between atoms when they share or transfer valence electrons in order to achieve stable electron configurations like the noble gas structure. 2. Ionic bonds are formed via transfer of electrons from metals to nonmetals, creating oppositely charged ions that are attracted to each other. Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electron pairs between atoms. 3. Energy must be absorbed to initiate chemical reactions but reactions release energy when bonds in reaction products are strong
