Question

Is an ionic bond more like a polar covalent bond or a non-polar covalent bond? Explain

Answer 1

Answer:

POLAR

Explanation:

The formation of an ionic bond is the result of the transfer of one or more electrons from a metal onto a non-metal.

Non-polar is an equal sharing of electrons, whereas polar is an unequal sharing of electrons.

Ionic bonding is on one extreme with a complete transfer of electrons forming charged ions. Non-polar covalent bonding with equal sharing of electrons is at the other extreme.

Even though ionic bonding is kinda in the middle, it leans more towards polar because they aren't two opposite extremes.

hope this helps ! :)
