what type of elements form ionic bonds?
two metals
a nonmetal and a metal
two gases
two nonmetals
Brief Explanations
- When electrons are shared, covalent bonds form. Ionic bonds involve electron transfer, metallic bonds are in metals with a sea - of - electrons model, and magnetic is not a bond type related to electron sharing.
- Ionic bonds form between a nonmetal and a metal. Metals lose electrons to form cations and nonmetals gain electrons to form anions, which are then attracted to form ionic bonds.
