Two or more of the same or different atoms are called

The main bond of biological molecules, biochemical reactions, energy metabolism, and synthesis of biological molecules

In Ionic bonds, One atom gives up an electron, thus becomes positively charged, the other atom gains the electron, thus becomes negatively charged.

An ion whose outermost electron is more than half-filled with electrons. Thus, it will be negatively charged

An atom whose outermost electron orbital is less than half filled with electrons.

This is the strongest type of bond

This bond is formed between atoms with opposite charges

This type of bond does not require energy input to be formed and is the weakest type of bond

The term Hydrophobic means “water loving.”

Compounds that disassociate in water into one or more H+ and one or more anions are called:

Compounds that disassociate in water into one or more OH- and one or more Cations are called:
