What causes ionic bonding between two atoms?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Ionic bonding happens when an atom of an element gives one or more of its electrons to the other element's atom..it usually takes place between metal and non metal atoms...like in NaCl, Na gives its valence electron to chlorine and completes its own octet. Chlorine accepts the electron and completes its own octet too...but now both the atoms have an opposing charge and hence they attract each other to form an IONIC bond.

Ionic bonds are the strongest of the bonds...here complete transfer of electrons takes place unlike covalent bonds.

46. True or false. Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

atoms in compounds :

<u>False</u>

Explanation:

Chemical reaction are the reaction in which old bonds break and new  bonds are formed . The formation of new bond result in formation of new compounds . This happen because new bond are result of linking different atoms by the bond.

For example : Water formation from Oxygen and Hydrogen is a chemical process :

2H_{2}+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}O

Original(old) bonds are :

H-H bond in H2 and O-O bonds in O2

In H2 = Hydrogen is joined to Hydrogen

IN O2 = Oxygen is joined to oxygen

New Bonds =

O-H bonds in water (H2O)

Oxygen is joined to hydrogen = New Bond formation

Hence,

<u>Chemical reactions do involve changes in the chemical bonds that join </u>

<u>atoms in compounds</u>

What is an ion? What are the two ways in which an ion can be made?
denpristay [2]
Answer: Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the ...

lora16 [44]

Handle of frying pan would be a good use for a nonmetal. A nonmetal is neither a good thermal insulator nor a good electrical conductor. Because it is neither, it can be use as a semiconductor. It does not absorb heat that much that is why it is best in insulating.

What do cations and anions form?
melomori [17]

Answer: Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.
