Ionic vs Covalent Bonds: Oxide Electronegativity Analysis

  • If the ionic percentage of a compound is less than 50%, it leans towards a covalent bond. The electronegativity of an oxide determines its nature: if greater than 2.3, it's basic; if equal to 2.3, it's amphoteric; if less than 2.3, it's acidic.
