Re: Ionic Character
Hi Medha,
No bond can have 100% ionic character because there is always some degree of electron sharing or polarization between atoms, even in highly ionic compounds. This occurs due to factors like partial electron overlap and the influence of atomic size and electronegativity differences, preventing a perfect ionic bond.
