Classify different types of atomic bonds
When atoms bond together, they create elements. The different types of bonds (ionic and covalent, polar and non-polar) have an impact on the elements they create. Understanding the types of bonds that create things can help us understand those things themselves.
What You’ll Learn to Do
- Describe the characteristics of ionic bonds and identify common ions
- Describe the characteristics of covalent bonds and differentiate between polar and non-polar bonds
- Model a Hydrogen bond and identify its unique qualities
Learning Activities
The learning activities for this section include the following:
- Ionic Bonds
- Covalent Bonds
- Hydrogen Bonds
- Self Check: Atomic Bonds
