Ions are held close together by a?
The answer depends on if they are atoms or in an ionic bond. In an ionic bond oppositely charged ion are held together by the electronic force of attraction that exists between oppositely charged particles.
Is ammonium ion a covalent or ionic bond?
The ammonium ions itself is held together by covalent bonds, but it will form ionic bonds with negative ions.
What is the result of an ionic bond?
Two ions held together by electromagnetic forces like NaCl.
What type of attractive force or bond holds the sodium ions and chloride ions together in a crystal of sodium chloride?
They are held together by an electrostatic force causing an ionic bond.
Is LiF held together by electrostatic attraction?
Yes. The electrostatic attraction is between the oppositely charged ions is the ionic bond.
How are ions in a sodium chloride held together?
Between the ions Na+ and Cl- a strong ionic bond exist.

What type of attractive force or bond holds the sodium ions and chloride ions together in a crystal of sodium chloride?
They are held together by an electrostatic force causing an ionic bond.
What is a repeating pattern of positive and negative ions held together?
An ionic solid. More specifically, the alternating positive and negative ions form an ionic lattice.
What type of bond is contained within an ionic compound?
The bond is an ionic bond, an electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. an example is NaCl which contains sodium ions, Na+, and chloride, Cl-, ions. The sodium chloride lattice is held together by electrostatic attraction between them.
How are the ions held together in the compound magnesium chloride?
In any ionic compound including magnesium chloride, the ions are held together by ionic bonds.
Is LiF held together by electrostatic attraction?
Yes. The electrostatic attraction is between the oppositely charged ions is the ionic bond.
What is an ionic Comound?
An ionic compound is a chemical compound in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bounds. Ionic bonds is a type of chemical bond that can often form between metal and non-metal ions (or polyatomic ions such as ammonium.) through electrostatic attraction. In short, it is a bond formed by the attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
What bond occurs due to an attraction between opposite charges?
Between oppositely charged ions the bond is called an ionic bond. Cations (positive ions) and Anions (negative ions) attract together like a magnet and create one of the strongest bonds in chemistry (ionic bond)
Bond that holds ions together?
Yes,bonds hold ions together through strong electrostatic forces between the cations and anions.(in ionic bonds).
