Question
question 22 bonds are the only primary bonds that are directionally dependent. metallic ionic van der waals covalent
Brief Explanations
Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of electron - pairs between atoms and their strength and properties depend on the direction of the overlapping of atomic orbitals. Ionic bonds are non - directional as they are based on the electrostatic attraction between ions. Metallic bonds involve a sea of delocalized electrons and are non - directional. Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces and are non - directional.
