How would Magnesium bond with Chlorine?

CL

CL

Mg

Magnesium is a metal

Chlorine is a non-metal

Metals want to give electrons

Non-metals want to gain electrons

CL

CL

Mg

When metals lose electrons they turn into POSITIVE ions

When non-metals gain electronsThey turn into NEGATIVE ions

Mg

CL

CL

The positive ions is attracted to the negative ions

The negative ions is attracted to the positive ions

Between the two ions exist an electrostatic force

that draw them together

HOW WOULD CARBON BOND WITH OXYGEN?

O

C

O

Carbon is a non-metal

Oxygen is a non-metal also

Both non-metals want to gain electrons

to make an OCTET

O

C

O

Carbon wants 4 electrons

to made an octet

Both Oxygen wants two electrons each to make an

octet

SO THEY MUST SHARE!

OO

Thus Sharing forms aCOVALENT BOND

In this case there are four covalent bonds!
