What are two ways atoms can combine to form compounds?

You can form compounds with ionic bonds, or covalent bonds. Example 1: Salts are bonded together with ionic bonds, such as NaCl or CuCl2. When compounds have ionic bonds it is the electrostatic force between the atoms that bonds them together. Example 2: Inorganic/organic molecules are mostly bonded together with covalent bonding. this means that the atoms share pairs of electrons with each other, and there is a equilibrium between the attractive and repulsive forces between the atoms. CO2, EtOH, H2O all have covalent bonds "holding" the molecule together


What kind of bonds are carbon-oxygen bonds in CO2?

double covalent bonds


How many bond of CO2?

The bonds in CO2 are double bonds from C to O. The double bonds each have 1 sigma bond and 1 pi bond.


Carbon bonds with oxygen to form?

carbon dioxide...Co2 carbon dioxide...Co2


Is CO2 molecule has two types of bond lengths?

No, both the bonds in CO2 are identical.


What substance is in a two double covalent bonds?

CO2 molecule has two double bonds.


Does carbon dioxide involve ionic bonds and covalent bonds?

CO2 is a covalent bond. It is 2 non-metals sharing electrons. Also, covalent bonds usually involve liquids/gases such as CO2.


Can covalent bonds bond two nonmetal atoms together?

Yes and there are many examples. When nitrogen and oxygen bond together it is by covalent bonds. Similarly, Oxygen and Fluorine bond together in the same way. Above all, the whole field of organic chemistry is about non-metals bonding together covalently. Some other examples: CO2, O2, N2.


Does water or carbon dioxide have a higher boiling point and why?

Carbon dioxide exists as a gas at stp, and water exists as a liquid. Therefore, CO2 has already passed the boiling point, so water has the higher boiling point.


What is the chemical bond for CO2?

The type of chemical bond that can be found in CO2 is covalent. Its covalent bonds occur between two nonmetals.


Co2 why does this arrangement satisfy all atoms involved?

Because CO2 mainly bonds with organic elements and compounds which all are polar and CO2 isn't.


Difference of ionic and covalent bonds?

Ionic bonds are bonds formed by a metal and a nonmetal (e.g. CaCl2), while covalent bonds are bonds formed between two nonmetals (e.g. CO2).
