Silver ions are only one half of a ionic bond. Take a simple ionic compound, one half of which is silver, for example silver bromide. This contains both Ag2+ (silver) and Br-(Bromine) ions. The bonds between these two different ions are ionic bonds

What are ions formed by covalent bonds?

Ions are formed in the case of ionic bonds and not covalent bonds.


Ionic metallic and covalent bonds are examples of what type of forces?

Ionic and covalent bonds are examples of primary chemical bonds, which are forces that hold atoms together in a compound. Ionic bonds involve the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

No. AgCl is insoluble in water. It forms a solid precipitate.


What cases the dark color that forms when AgCl is exposed to light?

The light provides energy to break the ionic bonds binding the silver ions (Ag+) to the chloride ions (Cl-). The silver ions become silver atoms and cluster, thus becoming visible.

When Ionic bonds are usually formed?

Ionic bonds form between oppositely charged ions due to an electromagnetic attraction. Ionic bonds are usually formed between metals and nonmetals which have a large difference in electronegativity. Metals tend to gain electrons and become positively charged ions, such as Na+, Mg2+, and K+. Nonmetals tend to lose electrons and become negatively charged, such as Cl-, F-, and O2-.Examples include NaCl, MgF2, K2O. There are also polyatomic ions, such as NH4+ and SO42- that also form ionic bonds with each other and monatomic ions such as Na+ and Cl-. Examples include NH4Cl and Na2SO4.


What kind of bonds form ions?

Ionic bonds form when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in the creation of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions). The attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic bond.
