    The three primary bonds are ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds. Ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals through the transfer of electrons from the metal to the nonmetal. Covalent bonds form between elements of the same type through the sharing of electron pairs. Metallic bonds form within metals through the attraction between free-floating valence electrons and positive metal ions, with the electrons acting as a glue holding the structure together.

    Q: Which are the three primary bonds?

    Describe briefly how they form.

    Three main types of


    primary bonds
    1.
    2.
    3.

    Ionic bond
    Covalent bond
    Metalic bond

    They are the strongest bonds.

    Ionic bond

    Is a bond created between a metal and


    a non metal.
    Created by transfer of electron
    between two atoms(in-order to
    complete valence in outer most shell)
    In this bond metal lose electron and
    become negatively charged, while
    nonmetals gain electrons to become
    positively charged.

    Example: NaCl

    Covalent bond

    Created by pairing of electrons


    Occur within elements of same type
    They occur in-order to stable the shells
    in an atom.

    Example : H2 molecule

    Metallic bond

    It is a force of attraction between


    valence electrons and the positive
    metal ions
    Electrons are free to move in this type
    of bond and they act as a glue.

    Example: silver
