Lies an electron all by itself

I seek elation

Through oxidation

I have always felt incomplete

One electron shy of eighteen

I’ve the highest

Electron affinity

If we exchange this one electron

We’ll both achieve noble gas config’ration

And we’ll release energy

As ions you’ll see

A bond

Made by metals and non-metals

I’m positive

I’m negative

A force of attraction creates this bond

Made by metals and non-metals

Ionic bonds

Covalent bonds

Metallic, these are the bonds of chemistry

The octet rule says atoms like eight

Electrons in their outermost state.

I’ll share mine with you

I’ll share with you

If we both share these six electrons

We’ll both achieve noble gas config’ration

And we’ll release energy

Covalent there’ll be

A Bond

Electronegativity

Is similar for non-metals

And so,we share this bond of electrons

Electronegativity

Ionic Bonds

Covalent Bonds

Metallic,these are the bonds of chemistry

Free

Electrons all around

Mutual attractive forces abound

In this way

I will stay

Crystalline with you

Our Bond

Ionic bonds

Covalent bonds

Metallic 00:03:52,00:03:02 These are the bonds of chemistry
