Ionic compounds are formed when a metal loses an electron to a non-metal, which gains the electrons.
Covalent compounds are formed, on the other hand, when electrons are shared between atoms.

when an atom loses an electron it becomes a positive ion

A property of an ionic compound is crystal shape


A bond in which a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms is a covalent bond

Fluorine atoms cannot form a doubel or triple bond because fluorine has 7 valence electrons

An ionic crystal splits along a face of like charges


im pretty sure these are all right
i had the same questions for homework but i didn't hand it in yet so i don't know if they're all correct

1. B
2. C
3. B
