let's use the ions Cl- and H+ forming HCl, hydrochloric acid, chlorine has 7 valence electrons and hydrogen has one, so when they form an ionic bond the valence shell is filled with 8 electrons. i hope that answered your question, I'm a chem major in college so i should know this stuff in and out but only a freshman so i don't lol

∙ 12y agovalence electrons are transferred to another atom so that the other atom can have a full outer shell........this makes the atoms oppositly charged and thats what attracts them to form ionic bonds
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoThe more electronegative atom gains electrons from the other and fills its valence shell. The other atom loses all electrons in the outermost shell (there are many exceptions when it comes to transition elements) and obtain the stable configuration in the previous shell.

The sharing of valence electrons between atoms indicates an ionic bond rue or false?
False. Sharing valence electrons to make a bond creates a covalent bond, not an ionic bond.
Are electrons are used in bonding are called valence or ionic?
They are called valence electrons. Ionic is a bond between a nonmetal and a metal. A covalent bond(molecular bond) is between two or more non metals.
What cause's and creates an ionic bond?
The complete transference of electrons from valence shell of one atom to the valence shell of another atom FORMS IONIC BOND....
Which type of bond is characterized by transferring valence electrons?
ionic bonding
Does The sharing of valence electrons between atoms indicates an ionic bond?

False. Sharing valence electrons to make a bond creates a covalent bond, not an ionic bond.
What happens to valence electrons as an ionic bond is formed between a metal and a nonmetal?
At least one, and usually all, of the valence electrons of the metal atom is donated to the valence shell of the nonmetal atom.
How do valence electrons of atoms behave when forming an ionic bond?
Electrons are transferred when ionic bonds are formed.
Are electrons are used in bonding are called valence or ionic?
They are called valence electrons. Ionic is a bond between a nonmetal and a metal. A covalent bond(molecular bond) is between two or more non metals.

What happens when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
This is the loaning (by one atom) and the borrowing (by another atom) of a valence electron or electrons that creates a chemical bond. This type of bond is the ionic bond where one atom loans (or gives up) and the other borrows (or takes) an electron or electrons. In the other bond type, the covalent bond, the two atoms involved share electrons.
The electrons available to be lost gained or shared when atoms form compounds are called?
The bond formed when two atoms have a give-take relationship in relation to electrons is called ionic bonding. This will mostly happens so that atoms can gain stability.
What electrons form a ionic bond?
Two atoms will form an ionic bond by the complete transfer of the valence electrons if the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is above 1.7
How is metallic bond different from ionic and covalent bonds?
they share all of their valence electrons
Is electrons share unequally in ionic bond?
Yes, The electrons are unequally shared in an Ionic Bond. One atom has more electrons than the other atom. Every Atom has Electrons that are called Valence Electrons. These Valence Electrons are the electrons in the outer shell of the Bohr Model of the atom. There should be a stable number of Valence electrons (2 or 8) for an atom to be completely stable. To stabilize the valence electrons the atom bonds with other atoms. One type of bond is called ionic bond where one atom gives up a certain number of electrons to be stable and another atom gains all of those lost atoms.
