Answer:

Hey

Explanation:

Covalent bonds and ionic bonds are two different ways of how elements bond to each other. The main difference between covalent and ionic bonds is that ionic bonds occur between two species which are electrostatically attracted towards each other, whereas covalent bonds occur covalently through the sharing of electrons between their outer shells.

Answer:

<h2>Ionic bond</h2>

Meaning :- When there is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between a cation and an anion (two oppositely charged ions) of elements is called the ionic bond. This bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Involves :-Transfer and accepting of electrons from the valence shell.

Existence :- They also exist in the solid state only.

Examples :- NaCl, BeO, LiF, etc

<h2>Covalent bond</h2>

Meaning :- When there is a strong electrostatic force of attractions between two positively charged nuclei and the shared pair of electrons is called the covalent bond.

Involves :- Sharing of electrons in the valence shell.

Existence:- Exist as solids, liquids and gases.

Examples :- Diamond, carbon, silica, hydrogen gas, water, nitrogen gas, etc.

Lelu [443]

es resultado de un fenómeno meteorológico que consiste en la precipitación de pequeños cristales de hielo.

Los cristales de nieve adoptan formas geométricas con características fractales y se agrupan en copos.Esta compuesta por pequeñas partículas ásperas y es un material granular.

Normalmente tiene una estructura abierta y suave, excepto cuando es comprimida por la presión externa.

La nieve es el vapor de agua que experimenta una alta deposición en la atmósfera a una temperatura menor a 0 °C y posteriormente cae sobre el suelo.

LESSON 4.2 Review

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Energy is said to flow in a "one-way stream" through an ecosystem. In your own words, describe what that means. Energy is not recycled. Energy enters an ecosystem and flows through a food chain, but it is not reused, it is lost as heat.

Hope the answer helps:)
