Question
- A. Explain that atoms can bond by transferring electrons from one atom to another. is linked to key ideas in chemistry...
- B. An unrelated statement about Key ideas in chemistry
- C. A conclusion that ignores the evidence in the question
- D. A broader claim that goes beyond this specification point
Answer
Explain that atoms can bond by transferring electrons from one atom to another. is linked to key ideas in chemistry... is correct for this objective.
Explanation
Explain that atoms can bond by transferring electrons from one atom to another. is linked to key ideas in chemistry... is the supported choice because it connects directly to "Explain that atoms can bond by transferring electrons from one atom to another" and keeps the explanation inside the AQA GCSE Biology Key ideas in chemistry curriculum. The other options are weaker because they are either unrelated, unsupported by the objective, or too broad for this page.
Common mistake
Confusing Bonding Types
Students often confuse electron transfer in ionic bonding with electron sharing in covalent bonding.
To fix this, remember that ionic bonding involves one atom transferring electrons to another, while covalent bonding involves atoms sharing electrons.
