One use of an ionic compound is preservation in food and taste enhancement. The compound is known as table salt (NaCl). Several ionic compounds are use as medicines, preservatives, pigments. antiseptic material and oxidizing and reducing agents.
As an example Magnesium and oxygen have an ionic bond between them to form magnesium oxide. :)
The ionic compound BaCl2 is called barium chloride in the naming system without the use of roman numerals.
Sodium fluoride forms an ionic bond because sodium is a metal and fluorine is a non-metal. In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from the metal to the non-metal. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between non-metal atoms.
Some buildings in America that still use columns today include government buildings like courthouses and state capitols, cultural institutions like museums and libraries, and commercial buildings like hotels and banks. Columns are often used to convey a sense of grandeur and stability in these structures.

The Romans adopted the Greek orders Styles) for making columns (Doric, Ionic and Corinthian) but also developed the composite style, which combined aspects of two reorders. They used columns for the temples and for porticoes.
The use of pillars to hold up the roofs of facades of buildings, with three types - Ionic, Corinthian and Doric styles.
The Romans rarely combined arches and columns. Large Roman buildings, the bridges and the bridgework of aqueducts made extensive use of the simple (barrel) arch and the vaulted arch (or vault, for vaulted roofs). Arches did not need columns. When the Romans combined arches with columns it was for decorative purposes. Roman ttemples were based on Greek models and were post-and-lintel structures resting on columns. Because of this, they did not have arches.

The Romans did not invent columns. They adopted the use of column to support the roofs of temples and for porticoes form the Greeks. They also adopted the three orders (styles) the Greeks used for columns: Doric, Ionic and Corinthian. They developed the Composite order which combined elements of two orders. The Egyptians used columns for their temples before the Greeks.
Early Christian Architecture was influenced a lot by Ancient Roman Architecture, which is characterized by repitition of arches. In this time, they actually converted old Roman buildings into religious structures, like the basilicas. On the other hand, Byzantine Architecture was inspired by Moorish Architecture because of the spread of Islam during that time. It is characterized by the addition of pointed elements, particularly in the dome. They introduce the onion dome, addition of pinnacles, turretts(not sure of the spelling), colorful mosaic murals, and introduction of colored buildings. Early Christian architecture and early Byzantine architecture are one and the same, as the Byzantine (or Romans as they called themselves) were in fact the early christians. The Moors were not invented at the time. The Mosque archetype in Ottoman architecture (which in popular terms counts as "Moorish"), as well as the Rock Mosque in Jerusalem, draw partly their architectural language from the Hagia Sofia in Istanbul, which at the time of erection was the largest church of Christianity.
Ancient Greece significantly contributed to architecture through the development of classical architectural orders: Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. These styles emphasized proportion, symmetry, and the use of columns, which became foundational elements in Western architecture. Notable structures like the Parthenon exemplified these principles, showcasing intricate design and harmony with the surrounding environment. The influence of Greek architecture can still be seen in modern buildings, particularly in government and cultural institutions.
They were tall stone columns used to support buildings. They were used for support, so although the Greeks made every effort to make then appear to be straight, they were sometimes slightly tilted for best support. There were three main styles of Greek columns.Doric columns: Tall simple columns. The had round tops and no bases. Decoration was a minimum, and usually consisted of fluted lines running lengthwise down the column, if there was any decoration at all.Ionic columns: These were slighty dressier, and often had scrollwork at the top and or bottom of the column. Sometimes the entire column was carved out to be a statue of a god, goddess, or hero. When they were not carved into characters, they were more heavily fluted than the Doric columns.Corinthean columns: These were very eleaberate and elegant columns. They were slender compared to the Doric and Ionic columns, and the detail work was more intricate and leafy. The tops and bases were heavily decorated. The Temple of Zues is noted for its use of this type of column.
