Kevin is curious about the contrast dye and what ionic and covalent mean with regard to the element iodine. Which of the following statements regarding ionic and covalent bonds is/are true? Ionic bonds are formed by unequal sharing of electrons between two or more metal atoms. Covalent bonds form between metal and nonmetal atoms where one atom gains and the other loses electrons. Ionic bonds are formed by the equal sharing of electrons between two metal atoms. Ionic bonds are formed by the loss and gain of electrons between metal and nonmetal atoms. As the cardiologist explained, an iodine-containing dye used for angiograms is either an ionic compound or a covalent compound. Describe the difference between an ionic compound containing iodine and a covalent compound containing iodine.
