Yes.
Ionic compounds are strongly attracted by the electrostatic forces that bring 2 oppositely charged atoms together. One single positive ion will attract 4 negative ions and bond to it on all 4 sides (top,down,left,right). The negative ions will likewise do the same. In the end, the whole structure formed will resemble a neat compact lattice. The process is continuous, provided there is always a supply of ions. The lattice will then keep expanding.
Ionic bonds is the attracting between opposing forces (positive and negative) while covalent bonds are atoms sharing electrons to get an inert gas configuration (8 electrons in valence shell). Covalent bonds exist as discrete molecules while ionic compounds do not exist as discrete molecules and form large crystal lattices.
Covalent bonds are different from ionic bonds because ionic bonds involve the sharing of electrons. Ionic bonds are also electrically conductive.
Ionic bonds are formed between atoms with large differences in electronegativity, where one atom has a strong tendency to attract electrons from the other atom. This results in the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, creating positively charged cations and negatively charged anions that are then attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, forming an ionic bond.
Yes, SiCl4 forms ionic bonds. Silicon (Si) is a metalloid that can exhibit both covalent and ionic bonding. In SiCl4, silicon forms ionic bonds with chlorine (Cl) due to the large electronegativity difference between the two elements.
Plutonium typically forms covalent bonds in compounds. These covalent bonds are usually polar due to the large electronegativity difference between plutonium and other atoms it bonds with.
Covalent bond. Molecular compounds are formed by covalent bonds. Ionic bonds and metallic bonds form large crystal lattices (Some large crystals are covalent- like diamond)
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond and form large lattices.
Poar in the sense that they involve charges and therefore dissolve in polar solvents. . However polar in the sense that there is a dipole moment No- there are no molecule just large lattices.
Ionic. When solid: crystalic ion latice
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound; the term "molecule" is not adequate because NaCl form large lattices.

They form sodium chloride, a chemical compound; the formula unit is NaCl. This is not a true molecule because ionic compounds forms large lattices.
Sodium chloride is an inorganic salt, very soluble in water, with ionic bods, forming large lattices, transparent crystals etc.
Sodium chloride is an inorganic compound, a salt, an ionic compound forming large lattices, very soluble in water, indispensable for life, with transparent crystals etc.
Because molecule was originally defined as a cluster of two or more atoms held together by a covalent bond. So it's not accurate if we say it molecules of ionic compounds. The true sentence is polyatomic ions.
NaCl is an ionic compound, certainly not nonpolar.
