Chemistry 10 - Why did the electrons go???
When we learned that atoms gain or learn electrons to gain a full valence shell, we wondered, WHERE DID THE ELECTRONS WENT?
Did they just disappeared? Nope, they didn't.
Actually, the electrons went to other elements. They BOND.
In chemistry, there are 3 types of bonding.
1) Metallic bonding whereby metals bond with metals to form a compound. 2) Ionic bonding where by Metals bond with non-metals to form a compound. 3) Covalent bonding whereby non-metals bond with non metals to form a compound.
--> more information will be uploaded tomorrow (:
