An example is calcium(11)oxide. Ca^2+ cation interact with O^2- anion
The earth and the sun.
earth revolves around the sun, if there wasnt any attractive force, earth would just float away.
So ty Isaac
an ionic bond
By the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
Because by definition, ionic bond is the force of attraction between positively charged cations and negatively charged anions. To form ions, atoms should be gained (resulting in anions) and lost (resulting in cations).
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
Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. Positively charged cations are formed when atoms lose electrons. Negatively charged anions are formed when atoms gain electrons. Ionic bond is the force of attraction between cations and anions.
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.
By the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions
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.
Because by definition, ionic bond is the force of attraction between positively charged cations and negatively charged anions. To form ions, atoms should be gained (resulting in anions) and lost (resulting in cations).
due to the strong electrostatic force of attraction between the positive cations and negative anions in ionic compounds
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
Actually both. Atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged anions whereas when atoms lose electrons positively charged cations are formed. Ionic bond is the force of attraction between cations and anions
Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. Positively charged cations are formed when atoms lose electrons. Negatively charged anions are formed when atoms gain electrons. Ionic bond is the force of attraction between cations and anions.
electrostatic force of attraction between the positive cations and the negative anions.
Ionic Bonds form between positive cations, and negative anions and has an electronegativity of greater then 1.7. All ionic bonds are therefor formed between a metal and non-metal.
