Interpretation:
The type of bonding present in potassium iodide
Concept Introduction:
Bonding:
The bonds are formed by sharing and transfer of one or more electrons present in a molecule. The atoms or ions present in a molecule are bonded together. The bonds can be formed as single, double and triple bonds. The bonds can be formed based on electronegativity value. There are few examples of bonds are given.
They are,
- Ionic bond: When electrons are transferred from metal atom to nonmetal atom, and as a result of interaction between oppositely charged ions and forms ionic bond. These types of bonds are known as ionic bonds.
- Covalent bond: These bonds are formed due to electrostatic attraction between atoms and its shared pair of electron. These bonds can able to choose their octet fill by sharing electron pairs between them. These are known as covalent bonds.
- Metallic bond: The metallic bonds are formed between ionized atoms of metal and the sea of electrons is present around them. The metal compounds generally have low electronegativity. It can be easily ionized and they can lose the outermost electron.
Electronegativity: The ability of atom to attract bonding pair of electrons is known as electronegativity. The electronegativity can be denoted as
