When Sodium chloride or table salt is a compound formed
when sodium loses its valence electron to chlorine, the type of bond formation
that takes place in sodium chloride is the Lewis Bond.
Protons: charge +1, have a mass of 1 and are found in the nucleus
Neutrons: charge 0, have a mass of 1 and are found in the nucleus
Electrons: charge -1, have a mass of 1/840 and are found on the outside of the nucleus
hope that helps
Answer:
Bonding Order = number of bonding electrons – number of antibonding electrons/2.
So for CO2, there is a total of 16 electrons, 8 of which are antibonding electrons.
So 16 – 8 = 8; divided by 2 = 4. So, 4 is the bonding order of CO2. The molecular structure of CO2 looks like this:

O=C=O
