Ionic bonds generally form between metals and nonmetals.
In the last lesson we saw that atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ionic bonds.
Each pair consisting of one anion and one adjacent cation in a solid compound with ionic bonds is bonded within the pair by an ionic bond.The bonds between cations and anions in a solid salt are examples of an ionic bond.

The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent.
Ionic bonds are generally stronger than covalent bonds. Ionic bonds are formed between ions with opposite charges, resulting in a strong electrostatic attraction. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, which are generally not as strong as the electrostatic forces in ionic bonds.
Ionic bonds are strong, molecular bonds are relatively weak.
The bonds are ionic or covalent.
An ionic compound always exists in solid state.
Ionic bonds involve electrostatic attraction between ions and transfer of electrons.Covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons.
The two types of chemical bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. Ionic bonds form between ions with opposite charges, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.
