Not in high school chemistry. If they ended the year remembering the difference between ionic and covalent I was happy. (If they could remember polarity, I’d feel so much dopamine that I might as well as shot heroin)

Before I look it up... Ionic is weaker and covalent shares an electron? 5th grade chemistry was a long time ago.

Edit: Hey yeah ions are created by taking or giving up electrons. Covalent bonds share them.

Yup! You got it. Ionic bonds are like magnets, and covalent bonds are glued together by electrons.

Weird, I did in high school (in a STEM major, if you'ld call it that)

My state is 49th in education, and we are trying to be 50th. I tutor now, and would say only half the chemistry classes in the state get past balancing equations.
