Question

question 1 1 pts what type of bond would make a salt? covalent bond hydrogen bond ionic bond polar covalent bond

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Salts are typically formed by the transfer of electrons between atoms, which is characteristic of ionic bonds. Covalent bonds involve sharing electrons (e.g., in non - metal compounds like \(H_2O\)). Hydrogen bonds are weak intermolecular forces (e.g., in water between \(H_2O\) molecules). Polar covalent bonds are a type of covalent bond with unequal electron sharing (e.g., in \(HCl\)). Ionic bonds, where one atom donates electrons (usually a metal) and another accepts (usually a non - metal), result in the formation of ions that attract each other to form a salt (e.g., \(NaCl\) formed from \(Na^+\) and \(Cl^-\)).

Answer:

Ionic Bond
