What does the formation of cations and anions illustrate the attraction between?
Ionic bonds
What type of compound does cations and anions compose?
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
How do you tell apart cations and anions?
cations, positively charged ions, can be told from anions, negatively charged ions, bysize--cations are smaller then the average atomic mass of the element --anions are largertype--cations are made from metals --anions are non-metalsorder--cations are always listed first in a chemical equation
What are ionic compounds held together by?
electrostatic force of attraction between the positive cations and the negative anions.
What is the force that holds cations and anions together?
The force is a chemical bond
Which tool would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace other cations or anions in a chemical reaction?
A displacement table would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace other cations or anions in a chemical reaction.
What are formed by a loss or gain of valence electrons during a chemical combination of elements?
Cations are formed by the loss of electrons, anions are formed by the gain of electrons. The force of attraction between cations and anions results in ionic bond.

Which tool would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace othe cations or anions in a chemical reaction?
A tool that would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace others in a chemical reaction is a displacement table.
Which tool would be used to find info on which cations or anions will replace other cations or anions in a chemical reaction?
a reactivity series
What type of compound does cations and anions compose?
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
Why is salt a strong bond?
Salt is made up of cations and anions and has a strong electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.

A anions and xenons b anions and cations c cations and xenons d xenons and anions Which of these are ions?
The ions are b, anions and cations. Note that xenon is not an ion, it is a noble gas.
Do anions and cations share electrons during ionic bonding?
Yes anions and cations share electrons. Anions gain electrons and cations loose electrons.
