5 answers

Atoms join together in ionic bonds because their opposite charges attract each other. So the correct answer is:

ionic bonds and covalent bonds (though note that the covalent bond is based on sharing electrons, not charge attraction).

If you're focusing specifically on the attraction of opposite charges, then only ionic bonds are relevant from your options.

Atoms join together in ionic bonds because their opposite charges attract each other. So in the context of your options, the correct choice is:

ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds.

Hydrogen bonds involve attraction between polar molecules, but they are not primarily formed by opposite charges like ionic bonds. However, the question seems to be focused on charge attraction, which specifically applies to ionic bonds. Please note that while the other types of bonds listed do not primarily involve charge attraction, for your provided choices, "ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds" is the option with ionic bonds included.

Which of the following bonds
is the strongest? (1 point)
valence bonds
covalent bonds
metallic bonds
hydrogen bonds

Among the options provided, the covalent bonds are generally considered the strongest type of bond.

Here's a brief overview of the bond strength hierarchy:

  • Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms and are typically strong.
  • Metallic bonds involve the pooling of electrons among many atoms and can also be strong but are usually not stronger than covalent bonds.
  • Hydrogen bonds are relatively weak interactions compared to covalent and metallic bonds.

So the correct answer is covalent bonds.
