The bonding is electrostatic attraction between positive and negatively charged ions. For example in common salt, sodium chloride, sodium atoms have lost 1 electron to become Na+ and chlorine atoms have gained one electron to become Cl-.

What is the method of bond formation for ionic bonding?

In ionic bonding, atoms transfer electrons to achieve a full outer shell, resulting in the formation of positive and negative ions. These ions are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction, forming an ionic bond. This bond typically occurs between a metal and a nonmetal.

How is covalent bonding differant to ionic bonding?

ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms


How is ionic bonding different from covalent bonding?

Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in the formation of charged ions that are attracted to each other. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms, creating a strong bond between the atoms.


What pair of atoms will form ionic bond?

A metal tends to form an ionic bond with a non-metal. Metals bonding with other metals form a metallic bond, and non-metals bonding with other non-metals form a covalent bond.
