Question

What are the ionic bonds

Answer 1

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are bonds formed as a result of the electrostatic attraction between two species.

• This bond type is an interatomic bond.
• It forms when two specie with a large electronegative difference between them combines.
• This is usually a metal and a non-metal.
• The metal loses its valence electrons and becomes positively charged.
• The non-metal gains the electron and becomes negatively charged.
• An electrostatic attraction between the two specie leads to the formation of an ionic bond.
• They are solids with a high melting point.
• They are soluble in polar solvents.
