Answer 2

full outer shell

Question 3

metal charge

Answer 3

positive

Question 4

non-metal charge

Answer 4

negative

Question 5

configuration of ions

Answer 5

noble gas (eg- K+ and Cl- have same configuration as arogon)

Question 6

attraction of cations and anions

Answer 6

oppositely charged so attracted

Question 7

what form between oppositely charged ions

Answer 7

electrostatic forces of attraction

Question 8

ionic bond

Answer 8

electrostatic forces of attraction formed between oppositely charged ions which occurs in all directions (non-directional bonding)

Question 9

strength of attraction

Answer 9

very strong and requires lots of energy to overcome-high melting points
