The low values (23 to 30 dynes/cm) result in easy wetting of most materials, which is helpful for. lubricity and other properties. Electrical Properties. The typical volume resistivity of Halocarbon oil is in the range. of 1013 to 1014 ohm-cm. The dielectric constant is quite low.
When metals form ions, they tend to do so by losing their electrons  to gain a positive charge. Losing negatively charged electrons  causes the metals to become more positiv â¦ e due to having more  protons.
Covalent bonding takes place when the atoms occurs because the atoms in the compound have a similar ability to gain and lose ions. So, ionic bonds may form between metals and nonmetals while, covalent bonds form between two nonmetals. Ionic bonds can also be dissolved in water and other types of polar solvents. Also, ionic compounds are very good conductors of electricity.
