What are the 3 types of bonds How do they differ between one another?

Sagot :

A chemical bond can be formed by exchange of electrons, sharing of electrons.

There are majorly three types of chemical bonds.

These are:

Ionic Bond,

Covalent Bond,

and Metallic Bonds.

Ionic Bond: When an atom lose or gain the electron to attain the stability it forms ions and the attractive forces between two oppositely charged ions is known as ionic attractions or electrostatic attractive forces.

and such formed bonds are known as ionic bonds.

An ionic bond is formed when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is high as an electron transfer to occur to form the ions.

Covalent Bond: A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms.

A covalent bond is formed when the electronegativity difference of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.

Metallic Bonds: Metallic bonds are made up of electrostatic attraction between metal cations and the delocalized electrons. Metallic bond is  collective sharing of valence electrons between several positively charged metal ions.
