- Bonding
- Covalent
- A strong bond between two non-metals
- The atoms involved share elctrons
- Carbon can form four covalent bonds
- Nitrogen makes three covalent bonds
- Ionic
- Ionic compounds have high boiling and melting points
- The forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions are called ionic bonding
- In ionic bonding the electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
- Ionic bonding can cause an atom to become negatively charged
