Answer and Explanation:

<u><em>How are ionic bonds formed?</em></u>

  • Ionic bonds are formed as a result of a redox reaction.
  • <em>Formation of cations:</em> In which atoms of an element (metal) with low ionization energy give some electrons to reach stable electronic configuration.
  • <em>Formation of anions:</em> in which atoms of another element with high electron affinity accepts electrons to achieve  a stable electronic configuration.
  • <em>Example: NaCl</em>, the sodium atoms loss electron forming Na⁺ and the chlorine atoms gain electron forming Cl⁻, then the ions are attracted to each other with 1:1 ration forming the ionic compound NaCl.

Na + Cl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻ → NaCl

<u><em>What is the attractive force within the ionic bond?</em></u>

  • The attractive force within the ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged ions (cations, Na⁺) and the negatively charged ions (anions, Cl⁻).

Which of the following is true for the endothermic reaction Ba(OH)2(aq) + NH4NO3(aq) --&gt; Ba(NO3)2(aq) + 2NH3(aq) + 2H2O(l)?
Alchen [17]
If it's an endothermic reaction, then that means heat is being added to the system therefore H>0. Entropy is disorder, and since there are more moles on the products side, entropy is increasing therefore S>0 as well.
