Ionic Bonding Flashcards
To learn ionic bonding
1
Q
What is the structure and bonding in ionic bonding compounds?(diagram)
A
Look at sheet
2
Q
Why are bond so strong? What effect will this have on melting and boiling?
A
They have a strong electrostatic force.It takes a lot of energy to overcome strongelectrostaticforces so ionic compounds have highmeltingandboiling points.
3
Q
What does ‘giant ionic lattice’ mean?
A
The solid arrangement that is repeated many times . ‘Ionic’ is a structure containing ions.
