- By the way my name is Karen.
- And I am going to tell you about how they are different.

- Ionic bonds are when elements steal valence electrons from other elements.
- Ionic and covalent bonds are different because covalent bonds are when elements share valence electrons.
- Covalent bonds are very bad conductors of electricity.
- Ionic bonds are good conductors of electricity.
- Covalent bonds do not form ions because neither of the elements are losing or gaining electrons.
- Ionic bonds are formed between positively charged cations or negatively charged anions.
- Ionic bonds are soluble in water. Whereas Covalent bonds are insoluble in water
- Ionic and covalent bonds are both hard and brittle hard and brittle
- There could be many atoms (the building blocks of almost anything in nature) that contribute to a chemical formula(the recipe in a chemical bond).
- We hope we taught you more about ionic and covalent bonds!
