Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the types of chemical bonds listed: Ionic bond, Metallic bond, Hydrogen bond, and Covalent bond.
Understand that a chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances containing two or more atoms.
Recall that an ionic bond involves the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the formation of ions.
Recognize that a metallic bond involves the pooling of electrons among a lattice of metal atoms, allowing electrons to move freely.
Understand that a covalent bond involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms, which is the key characteristic of this type of bond.
