Thread: What compound is sugar? And why?

(covalent, ionic, etc.)

They're covalent. As for "why," look up the definition of "covalent."

You can easily find that type of information if you put half an ounce of effort into it. Also, please take note of the fact that as a general rule here, we do not do homework problems for anyone (if that is the case here, though I am not necessarily saying it is.) If you have a simple question, try to look up the answer and if after some trying you really can't find it, then feel free to post here.
