Answer: E
 Ionic bonds occur between ions, which are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons to become charged, and therefore are not dependent on polar molecules.

Answer: F
 Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms and can occur between both polar and nonpolar molecules.

Answer: G
 The octet rule states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons in order to achieve a stable electron configuration with eight valence electrons in their outermost shell.

Answer: H
 The atomic number refers to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
