1
Q

Why does chemical bonding happen?

A

They form to make atoms more stable; atoms are “stable” when the outer orbital is “full”.

Q

Ionic Bonds

A

One atom wants to give away an electron and one wants to take that electron so both are stable. Due to now opposite charges the two atoms stick together.
-Ex: Na ( has 1 electron, is neg. ) +Cl ( has 7 electrons, is pos. ) = Na ( becomes + cation, no ele. so is stable ) + Cl ( becomes - anion, has 8 ele. so is stable ).
