Question

which type of bond will form between two chlorine atoms?
an ionic bond
a metallic bond
a polar covalent bond
a nonpolar covalent bond

Explanation:

Chlorine is a non - metal. When two non - metal atoms of the same element bond, they share electrons equally due to the same electronegativity. This results in a nonpolar covalent bond. Ionic bonds form between a metal and a non - metal, metallic bonds are in metals, and polar covalent bonds form between non - metals with different electronegativities.

Answer:

D. a nonpolar covalent bond
