Ionic, Covalent And Metallic Bonding Flashcards
How are ions formed by electron loss or gain
Ions which are 3 or less away from having a full outer shell will gain electrons and ions which at 3 or less away from having an empty shell will lose electrons

Define ionic bonding
The strong electrostatic attractions between positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions)
Why do compounds with giant ionic lattices have high melting and boiling points
Giant ionic lattices have strong ionic bonds which need lots of energy to break therefore needing a higher melting and boiling point
Do ionic compounds conduct electricity
They do not when solid but do conduct when molten and in a aqueous solution
How do ionic compounds sometimes conduct electricity
They do because in a aqueous or molten solution the ions can move but in a solid the ions can’t move
What type of materials is a ionic bond made from
Metals and non-metals
