Explanation:
When an atom bonds with another atom then it results in the formation of a chemical bond.
This formation of bond could be due to transfer or sharing of electrons.
When a chemical bond is formed due to transfer of electrons then this type of bond is known as ionic bond.
When a chemical bond is formed due to sharing of electrons then this type of bond is known as covalent bond.
Answer;
Chemical bond
Explanation;
- Chemical bond is an attraction that is formed between atoms or molecules which enables formation of chemical compounds.
- Chemical bonds result from attraction of atoms to each other through the sharing of electrons, exchanging of electrons or the transfer of electrons or electrostatic forces.
- Chemical bonds may be classified as metallic bond, ionic bond or covalent bond.
- Ionic bonds occur when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, and the result is attraction between the resulting oppositely charged ions. Covalent bonds occurs as a result of sharing of electrons between non-metal atoms. Metallic bond occur in metals as a result of positively charged nucleus and a sea of electrons in the atoms.
