what is the term used to describe organic reactions in which each atom of a diatomic molecule is transferred to one of the carbons in a double bond?
In terms of organic chemistry how do you know if an atom has ionic bonds or covalent bonds and how do you know if it has just one of these or if it has both? Could you provide some examples of what an ionic bond looks like, covalent bond looks like, and what an atom would look like with both of these?
