Question

Describe the difference between a proton, neutron, and electron.

Describe the difference between an Ionic and a covalent bond.

Answer 1

Describe the difference between an Ionic and a covalent bond

In covalent bonds, atoms share electrons

in ionic bonds atoms transfer electrons

The reaction components of covalent bonds are electrically neutral, and for ionic bonds they are both charged.

Describe the difference between a proton, neutron, and electron

Proton=positive

electron=negative

neutron=no charge

The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. The same number of protons and electrons exactly cancel one another in a neutral atom

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Proton—positive

electron—negative

neutron—no charge

The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. The same number of protons and electrons exactly cancel one another in a neutral atom.
