Answer:
False
Explanation:
Atomic bonding can be of two types:
Ionic bonds: The bond formed between two opposite charged ions. The strong electrostatic force acting between the ions make them compounds of high stability . Example: NaCl
Covalent bonds: The bond formed by sharing of the electrons between the atoms. The balance between the attractive force (nucleus, electron) and repulsive force (electron, electron or nucleus, nucleus) makes the compound stable. Example: [tex]CH_4[/tex]
The bonds are either formed by transferring (losing and gaining) or sharing of electrons. Thus, compound forming these bonds share or transfer electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Thus, they lack free electrons.
