Give an example of a ionic bond?

Answer 1

Sodium metal losses an electron to become the cation,

Na +

Chlorine, a nonmetal, gains that electron to become the anion,

Cl -

Together these ions ionically bond to become,

NaCl

============common table salt.

Answer 2

An example of an ionic bond is table salt, or sodium chloride (NaCl). In this bond, sodium, a metal, donates an electron to chlorine, a nonmetal, forming ions with opposite charges that are attracted to each other and held together by electrostatic forces.

Answer 3

Xn+ Ym- is the usual designation of an ionic bond.

Answer 4

Common table salt. NaCl
