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).
What holds ions together in a crystal?
sodium :)
How are ions in a sodium chloride held together?
Between the ions Na+ and Cl- a strong ionic bond exist.
What is the term for a chemical bond that holds oppositely charged ions close together?
This is an ionic bond.
What holds ions together in sodium chloride?
This is a strong ionic bond.
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.
What type of bond is the electrostatic force that holds ions together?
Ionic bonds
What kind of bonds hold KCI together?
The bond that holds potassium chloride or KCl is an ionic bond. An ionic bond is type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions.
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 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 types of chemical bonds between positive and negative ions?
an ionic bond holds these crystals together
