May 17, 2012 at 13:36 | comment | added | ManishEarth | "usually it is more correct to say that a bond has ionic or covalent characteristics."-->yeah, that's why I was careful to talk in terms of "covalent character", though I missed a spot. Great answer, now I feel stupid. I'll wait before accepting this, though--let others have a chance. | |
