Chemical bonds resulting from the electrical attraction between opposite charges ( + & - ions)
Ionic Bonds
How are Ionic Bonds formed?
By the transfer of electrons from one another resulting in the atoms hel together by ionic bonds.
Ex: Na+ Cl- (criss cross applesauce)
An atom that loses or gains an electron so it's a charged atom.
Ion
Are Ionic bonds stronger that Hydrogen bonds?
YES
Are Ionic bonds stronger than Covalent Bonds?
yes
Chemicals resulting from the sharing of electrons by atoms.
Covalent Bonds
How are Covalent Bonds formed?
By atoms SHARING electrons resulting in the atoms beiong held togther by covalrnt bonds.
An EQUAL sharing of electrons by the atoms forming the covalent bond. Electrical charge is EQUALLY distributed at both ends of the molecule.
NON polar covalent bond
NOT AN EQUAL SHARING of the electrons by the atoms forming the covalent bonds. So one end of the molecule has slight positive charge and the other end has a slight negative charge
POLAR covalent bond
Atoms share ONE pair of electrons
Single Covalent Bond

ex: C-H
Atoms that share TWO pairs of electrons
Double Covalent Bond

Ex: O2
Atoms that share THREE pairs of electrons
Triple Covalent Bond

Ex: N2
A bond formed by the attraction of an H atom with a positive charge from one molecule to an atom with a negative charge on another molecule.
Hydrogen Bond
What is the Biological significance of hydrogen bonds?
Some of the properties of water which make it vital life are due to hydrogen bonds froming between water molecules, and between water and other moelcules.
The shape and function of proteins in hydrogen bonds are due to the extent of what?
Hydrogen bonds forming between various atoms in a molecule.

Also important in the structure of DNA.
