Study Notes
Ionic Bonding
- Ionic bonding does not occur when metals react with metals, but rather when metals react with non-metals.
- In ionic bonding, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms, resulting in the formation of ions with opposite charges.
- The resulting compound in an ionic bonding is called an ionic compound, not a covalent compound.
- An ionic bond is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions, which holds them together.
- In ionic bonding, negative ions are formed by non-metal atoms, not positive ions.
- Positive ions are formed by metal atoms, which lose electrons to become positively charged.
- The attraction between positive and negative ions in an ionic bond is strong due to their opposite charges.
- A dot and cross diagram is used to model the transfer of electrons in an ionic bonding, illustrating the formation of ions and their subsequent attraction.
