Re: Ionic vs Covalent
Most often Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds; however, there are some covalent bonds stronger than ionic. Ionic bonds are formed as a result of a mutual attraction between ions that have opposite charges. Covalent bonds are formed as a result of the sharing of electrons. Ionic bonds are s...

Re: HW1 F3 Help
Any acid that ends in -ic means it is made up of a nitrate ion. AN easy way to remember it would be I ATE something ICky.
Thus Nitric Acid=HNO3
