Q) What is different between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?

A) An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. ... Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In an ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of electron(s) from one atom to another.

An ionic bond will always be formed between a metal and a non-metal.

This is because an atom which loses its valence electrons (metals) acquires a positive charge and another atom which gains the electrons (non-metals) acquires a negative charge.  

Hence, these opposite charges strongly gets attracted towards each other forming a strong bond.

Whereas in a covalent bond, there will be sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

A covalent bond will always be formed between non-metals when they are present in neutral form.

For example, Cl_{2} molecules is formed due to sharing of electrons between the two Cl atoms.

Thus, we can conclude that difference between an ionic bond and a covalent bond is that an ionic bond is a bond between charged atoms, while a covalent bond is a bond between neutral atoms.
