Answer:
<u>Bond are the strong forces that holds two atoms Together in a molecule.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Some properties of bonds are as follow:
1. There are three types of bonds : ionic , covalent , coordinate
2. Ionic bonds are formed by transfer of electron form one atom to other. These bonds are very strong because they are formed by electrostatic force of attraction between opposite charges.
The ionic Bonds have very high lattice energy.
due to ionic bond , ionic compound have very high melting point ,boiling point, conductivity in melt state etc.
3. Covalent bonds : These bonds are formed by the sharing of electron .They are weaker than ionic bonds. The<em> melting point and electrical conductivity of covalent compounds are lower</em> than ionic bonds.
Why do elements combine to form bond?
They do so to get stability in order to complete their octet.
