17. (3 pt) Which statement identifies a difference between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?
ok what are the options?
A. A covalent bond will gain up to 8 electrons to form a bond, and an ionic bond will give away up to 8 electrons to form a bond. B. A covalent bond shares electrons to form a bond, whereas an ionic bond transfers electrons to form a bond. C. An ionic bond gains protons to become positive and attracts electrons to form a bond, whereas a covalent bond will gain electrons to form a bond. D. An ionic bond shares as many as 8 electrons to form a bond, and a covalent bond is formed by transferring as many as 8 electrons.

plzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Ionic bond are formed by transfer of electron there is strong electrostatic interactions between ions which result in higher melting points of the compound and electrical conductivity compared to covalent compounds. Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of elctrons. Due to the sharing of electrons, they exhibit characteristic physical properties that include lower melting points and electrical conductivity compared to ionic compounds.
? lil bit shoter plz
in short ionic bonds are formed by transfer of electrons and have more strength and electrical conductivity as compared to covalent bonds. covalent bonds are formed from sharing of electrons and have properties like lower melting point.
try to check if any option if correct and is following the given information
ok so a or b
it wuld be b
thx
