occur between polar, covalently bound, atoms in different molecules.
the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water are this kind of bond
Form when electrons are shared between two atoms
electrons shared by the atoms spend more time closer to one nucleus than the other
Some of these are caused by temporary partial charges formed when electrons move around a nucleus.
elements bond together with the electron from one element staying predominantly with the other element.
NaCl is an example of this kind of bond
A Methane (CH4) molecule is an example of this type of bond
Bonds are formed from postive and negative charges and require considerable energy to break
There are two types of this bond
can also form between different elements that share electons equally
These bonds give water the unique properties to sustain life
The liquid nature of water is they a result of this type of bond
one atom is more electronegative than the other
form between two atoms of the same element
are the strongest and most common bond form of chemical bond in living organisms
