Question

What is the word eletrovent

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrovalent is a word often associated with chemical bonding in the field of chemistry. It is special type of bond that occurs between metals and non-metals.

These bond types are interatomic interactions occurring between two atoms to ensure that they attain stable configurations.

• This bond type is also known as ionic bonds.
• It occurs between two species with a large electronegative diffference i.e one specie is electropositive and the other highly electronegative.
• The more electropositive specie is metal and it readily loses its valence electrons.
• The electronegative non-metal gains the electrons and becomes negatively charged.
• The electrostatic attraction between the metal and non-metals yields the electrovalent bonds.
