<span>The answer is anions. Cations are positively-charged ions (in this case K+) while anions are negatively-charged ions (in this case Cl-). The ions attract each other through electrostatic charges and arrange themselves in an ordered fashion to form a lattice</span>
A bond formed due to the transfer of electrons is known as an ionic bond.
For example, KCl is an ionic compound and due to the difference in electronegativity potassium has partial positive charge and chlorine have partial negative charge.
Also, it is known that opposite charges attract each other. So, cations have positive charge and anions have negative charge.
Thus, we can conclude that the reason salt crystals, such as kcl, hold together so well is because the cations are strongly attracted to anions.
Yes, because a mixture is 2 or more substances that are mixed together (not chemically). A mixture could be two different elements physically combined in a set ratio.
When sulfur dioxide combines with water and air, it forms sulfuric acid, which is the main component of acid rain. Acid rain can: cause deforestation. acidify waterways to the detriment of aquatic life
