         <description><![CDATA[<div>If atoms have similar electronegativity’s (the same affinity for electrons), covalent bonds are most likely to occur. Because both atoms have the same affinity for electrons and neither has a tendency to donate them, they share electrons in order to achieve octet configuration and become more stable.</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Positive and negative ions are formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal, this is completed by the process of transferring electrons. The oppositely charged electrons are extremely attracted to each other which forms ionic bonds.  The example shown is an ionic bond between Lithium and Chlorine. <figure class="attachment attachment--preview"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/2MA7qaQNtOE_XRh8nn3iJC2rqJNSfG22_LdK1pj8gcC8lKDAjJti6ana5L9aFAP3UyJ6mDMkCvE1ZXqFUFOWM5CFcOFFiYCmvV1m46y7i1YW_FfJhYdQwXLSEm9Peuvk3_RnSQfz" width="377" height="261"><figcaption class="attachment__caption"></figcaption></figure></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div> Simple covalent bonding is when an atom shares its electrons with another atom. Unlike the ionic bonding this type of bonding actually shares its electrons with the atom rather than giving it away. This process only takes place between 2 nonmetals which need to be stabilized </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>There are two types of atomic bonds - ionic bonds and covalent bonds. They differ in their structure and properties. Covalent bonds consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms in a fixed orientation. Relatively high energies are required to break them (50 - 200 kcal/mol). Whether two atoms can form a covalent bond depends upon their electronegativity for example the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. If two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity  as sodium and chloride do then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. This results in a positively charged ion and negatively charged ion. The bond between these two ions is called an ionic bond.</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Ions occur between:</strong></div><div>Two non-metals</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Covalent occur between:</strong></div><div>One metal and one non-metal</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Boiling point for Ionic Bonding:</strong></div><div>Low</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Boiling point for Covalent Bonding:</strong></div><div>High</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Before we actually get into what exactly ionic compounds are, let’s see what an ion is! <br><br>Well, in theory, an ion is an atom or molecule, that has either gained or lost [one—or more of] their valence electrons to another element (often the non-metal giving the electron to a metal)—in order to form an ionic bond [as the name may suggest]. <br><br>In turn, this gives the giving atoms (or molecules) a positive net electric charge (AKA a cation), whilst he receiver of the electrons(s) gets a negative electronic charge (AKA anion)<br><br>And together, when these opposing ions give, or take electrons, then bond—via electrostatic forces [ie. forces between particles that are caused by their electric charges]. This is what we call an ionic bond. <br><br>As for an ionic compound...well, it’s pretty obvious. An ionic compound is a composition of two [or more] separate elements, [ionically]. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic compounds are made out of ions rather than molecules. Instead of sharing electron in covalent bonds, ionic compound atoms are transferring electrons from one atom to another atom to try to form an ionic bond that relies on electrostatic attraction to keep the atom together. Covalent bonds that are bonded with molecules share electrons and act as a stable, single entity while an ionic bond results in independent ions that have a positive or negative charge, because most of their special structure, ionic compounds have a unique property and reacts easily with other ionic compounds when placed in different solutions.<br><br><br></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic Bonding<br>Properties-  Ionic Compounds have high boiling and melting points as they’re very strong and require a lot of energy to break.<br>The electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions.<br>Ionic compounds form crystals.<br>These compounds are brittle and break into small pieces easily.<br>Electrovalent compounds usually dissolve in water and are insoluble in solvents like oil, petrol, kerosene, etc.<br>Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in a solid state but they do conduct electricity in the molten state.<br>In comparison to molecular compounds, ionic compounds have higher enthalpies of fusion and vaporization.<br><br>Bonding- The Plus And Negative Are Closely Bonded Sharing Electrons Together. Ionic Bonding Takes Place Between Non Metal And Metal. <br><br>Reaction-  Ionic bonding can result from a redox reaction when atoms of an element (usually metal), whose ionization energy is low, give some of their electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. However, the ions themselves can be complex and form molecular ions.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic bonds are the transfer of valence electrons from the atom of one element to another, generating two completely opposite charged electrons, for example magnesium oxide (MgO), or Lithium Fluoride (LiF). The compound I chose for this type of chemical bonding is sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium Chloride also known as salt is an essential compound needed for the human body it is used to absorb nutrients and maintain blood pressure. It has a 1:1 ration in the compound and is soluble in water, ammonia, methanol, formic acid, Form-amide. Sodium Chloride is formed as tiny white crystals and is odorless but has a characteristic taste, it is made up of equal numbers of sodium and chloride ions. It has a melting point of 800 degrees Celsius, and a boiling point of 1465 degrees Celsius. It has a strong electrostatic force between them. It is readily soluble in water and other polar solvents.   </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic bonding:<br>Ionic bonding is the bonding between two atoms where an atom loses an electron and gives it to an atom that has 7 electrons so that it may fill its shell, while the atom that loses an electron has 1 in its outer shell and gets rid of it so that it empties its outer shell.The atom that loses its electron becomes positive while the atom that gains an electron becomes negative.This happens through electrostatic attraction.An atom may gain/lose 1 or more  electrons according to the amount it has. It Ionic binding only occurs between a metal and a non-metal.<br><br>Ionic Compounds:<br>Ionic compounds is a group of ions that are stuck together by electrostatic forces through ionic bonding. These have positively charged ions which are called cations and negatively charged ions called anions.<br><br>Simple covalent bonding:<br>When atoms bond by sharing electrons. One pair of shared electrons is a single covalent bond.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion. Ionic bonds require an electron donor, often a metal, and an electron acceptor, a nonmetal. </div>]]></description>

         <title>Methane is lighter than air, having a specific gravity of 0.554. It is only slightly soluble in water. It burns readily in air, forming carbon dioxide and water vapour; the flame is pale, slightly luminous, and very hot. The boiling point of methane is −162 °C (−259.6 °F) and the melting point is −182.5 °C (−296.5 °F). Methane in general is very stable, but mixtures of methane and air, with the methane content between 5 and 14 percent by volume, are explosive. Explosions of such mixtures have been frequent in coal mines and collieries and have been the cause of many mine disasters.</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>A covalent bond forms when the electrons on the other shells of two non-metals are shared. These bonds tend to be very strong and need lots of energy to be broken apart. These bond also are mostly found in molecules with low boiling and melting points. This is because there is an even number of electrons in the outer shell, as the electron charge around each atom is even.<br><br></div><div> </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Properties of ionic compounds-
Ionic compounds have high boiling and melting points because they are strong and require a lot of energy to break. 
Ionic compounds form crystals.
These are compounds are brittle and break into very small little pieces.
They do not conduct electricity in a solid state but they do conduct electricity in their molten state. 
The electrostatic forces of attractions between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions. 
Electrovalent compounds mostly dissolve in water and are insoluble in solvents like oil, petrol, etc.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Ionic bonding is observed because metals have few electrons in their outer-most orbitals. By losing those electrons, these metals can achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule. Similarly, nonmetals that have close to 8 electrons in their valence shells tend to readily accept electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. In ionic bonding, more than 1 electron can be donated or received to satisfy the octet rule. The charges on the anion and cation correspond to the number of electrons donated or received. In ionic bonds, the net charge of the compound must be zero</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>An ionic bond is the bonding between a non-metal and a metal, that occurs when charged atoms (ions) attract.  When this happens, the metal becomes a positive action, and the non-metal becomes a negative anion. This occurs, for example, when sodium and chlorine join to form the common salt, NaCl. This happens after a metal atom loses one or more of its electrons to the nonmetal atom. This makes the bond stronger and harder to break. </div>]]></description>
