not sure about the others though.
I don't believe any of the original answers are correct.

thx any ways and good luck on your test;)
thanks...hope you get your other answers
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.
atoms gain or lose electrons to achieve what?
1 is b
My science book is exactly the same. this is what I put:

1.b
2.c
3.b
4.d
5.?

I'm not sure if I am right on some of those, and I'm still looking for the answer for number 5. Hope this helped!
i need number 5 too!!!! im doin the same stuff for hw now
what is the factors of quantity and quality of water?
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
4. C
