Any time an atom transfers or shares an electron a is formed

Ahypothrticalax type of ceramic material is known to have a density of 2.10 g/cm3 and a unit cell of cubic symmetry with a cell edge length of 0.57 nm. the atomic weights of the a and x elements are 28.5and 30.0 g/mol, respectively. on the basis of this information, which of the following crystal structures is (are) possible for this material: sodium chloride, cesium chloride, or zinc blende

Which of these best describes an ionic bond?

13. a covalent bond between two atoms is likely to be polar if: a. one of the atoms is much more electronegative than the other. b. the two atoms are equally electronegative. c. the two atoms are of the same element. d. the bond is part of a tetrahedrally shaped molecule. e. one atom is an anion.
