Chemical Bonding
Forming Bonds
Atoms can bond to each
other and make molecules.
These bonds are what hold
molecules together.
Bonds form when atoms
either give away or share
electrons.
Covalent Bonds
Covalent bonds are
bonds in which atoms
share electrons.
Ionic Bonds
Ionic bonds form when one atom
takes an electron from another
atom.
Stable atoms are atoms that
have full valence shells.
Unstable atoms are atoms that
do not have filled valence shells
Metallic Bonds
Metallic bonds occur
when metal atoms
share electrons.
Electrons in the outer
shells float together
loosely and form a “sea”
electrons.
