Ionic bond
The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.
the force of attraction the force of attraction
It is nuetral.
an ionic compound is made of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged non-metal ions. they usually form an ionic lattice.
Electrostatic attraction between positive and negative charges.

Ionic bond
Ionic compounds are composed of negatively and positively charged atoms.
The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.

The resulting compound would be electrically neutral.
A cation is a positively charged ion or compound, whereas anions are negatively charged ion or compound
Ionic compounds are made up of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
The positively charged ion is the cation. Negatively charged ions are called anions.
It is nuetral.
False - the negatively charged chlorine cancels out the positively charged sodium. Therefore salt is a neutral, uncharged compound.
Electrostatic attraction between positive and negative charges.
