Question
- how do the types of chemical bonds differ from each other? how are they similar?
Chemical bonds include ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds. Differences lie in electron - transfer or sharing patterns and the types of atoms involved. Ionic bonds are between metals and non - metals with electron transfer, covalent bonds are between non - metals with electron sharing, and metallic bonds are in metals with a sea of delocalized electrons. Similarities include the fact that all are forces that hold atoms together to form substances and contribute to the stability of chemical structures.
