Define Electrovalent Bonding and explain.

Answer»

Electrovalent Bonding

When an atom donates one, two or three electrons from its valence shell to another atom, which has the ability to accept these electrons, it is known as electrovalency. As a result of electrovalency, both these atoms achieve the structure of an inert gas. When the chemical bond occurs by the transfer of electrons from the atom of an element to the atom or atoms of another it is called Ionic or Electrovalent bond.
