Question

Which phrase best describes what happens to the electron in an IONIC bond?

Shares equally
Gives away
Shares unequally
Sea of electrons

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ionic bonds give away electrons. Only in covalent bonds are electrons shared, and depending on the polarity of the molecule, would the electrons be shared or unshared equally? The sea of electrons only refers to metallic bonds.

Therefore: Ionic bonds give away electrons.
