 * 1) What is a covalent bond?
 * 2) What is an ionic bond?
 * 3) List 5 differences between ionic and covalent compounds (Ex. high or low boiling and melting points, sharing or transferring electrons, etc.).
 * 4) Find 5 Lewis Structures and copy and paste them on your page. Determine their molecular geometry.

1. a bond formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms 2.the electrostatic attraction that binds oppositely charged ions together 3.ionic- have pos and neg ions the y have solids high melting and boiling points strong force of attraction between particles seperated into charged particles in water to give solution tat conduct electricity convalent bonds- Exist as neutral molecules Solids, liquids,or gases Lower melting and boiling points Relatively weak force of attraction between moleculesRemain as same and will not conduct electricity 4. . tetrahedral, linear,squar planar, linear, bent

given; HBr- hydrogen bromide i got hydrogen bromide because i know what its a regular formula so i just looked at the H and wrote that it was hydrogen then i looked at Br and seen it was bromine so i added the suffix ide because i know that when its a non metal ** -Check this one again. It starts with "H" (hydrogen) so it's an acid. ** given;nitrous acid-HNO2 i said that it was HNO2 because the the chart shows that when its nitrious it has hydrogen infont of it and oxygen because its a acid ** - Good formula, but check out the acid rules again about your explanation. **

given; trisulfur nonafluoride-S3F9 i got S3F because tri means 3 and sulfur is s so then i seen nona is 9 and fluoride is f - ** Very nice. **
