Ionization energy is the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions. This is the following process;
X _g ---> ...

The bonds in H₂O are covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons, often where one electron is donated by each atom. This forms a bond as there is an elect...

The million dollar question when it comes to chemistry and is often the difference between a good grade and a great grade. The basis of this is to consolidate your basic concepts, make sure those are inst...

They're both similar but form between different types of elements. An ionic bond will form between a metal and a non-metal. The metal will donate electrons and the non-metal will accept the electrons, f...
