No, an ionic bond is when an electron/electrons are taken completely from one atom and moved to another. A covalent bond occurs when there is a sharing of electrons between atoms. This happens when the bond is between two nonmetals and the difference in electronegativities is 1.7 or less.

∙ 14y agoThe attractive force between two oppositely charged ions is related to the attractive energy between the two ions. where A =1/(4*Pi*E)*(Z1e)*(Z2e) E=8.85*10-12 F/m, permittivity of a vacuum e=1.602*10-19 C, the charge on a electron Z= the valance of the ion, example a Ca2+ has a valance of 2, and O2- has a valance of -2 r=distance between the centers of the ions in meters.

How do oppositely charged ions form chemical bonds?
If two oppositely charged ions are attracted, they form an ionic bond, and an ionic compound.
What allows ions to take part in other chemical reactions?
The strong attractive force of the other oppositely charged ions is responsible for their movement in a chemical reaction.
Ions are held close together by a?
The answer depends on if they are atoms or in an ionic bond. In an ionic bond oppositely charged ion are held together by the electronic force of attraction that exists between oppositely charged particles.
What is an ionic condition?
A chemical link between two atoms caused by the electrostatic force between oppositely-charged ions in an ionic compound.
What force holds ionic compounds together?
Electrostatic Force . It is an attractive force between oppositely charged ions. The analogy is the north and south poles of a magnet. NB NaCl (Sodium chloride) is ionic. It splits into the ions Na^(+) & Cl^(-) Notice the charges are opposite (+/-) and there is the same number of charges on each side, viz ; '1'
The attractive force between oppositely charged ions that transfers electrons is an?
ionic bond
What is the force between oppositely charged sub atomic particles?
Electrostatic force of attraction
What occurs between oppositely charged ions?
Ther is an electrical force of attraction between oppsitely charged ions.
How do oppositely charged ions form chemical bonds?
If two oppositely charged ions are attracted, they form an ionic bond, and an ionic compound.
What do you call the force of attraction between oppositely charged ions?
The interaction between charged objects is a non-contact force that acts over force of attraction between two balloons that are charged with the opposite type.
The atoms in salt are held together by?
Electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions.
What allows ions to take part in other chemical reactions?
The strong attractive force of the other oppositely charged ions is responsible for their movement in a chemical reaction.
What happens to the forces of attraction between charged objects and uncharged as the distance between them decreases?
As the distance decreases the attraction increases
What compounds whose bonds are force of attraction between two oppositely charged particle's are called?
These compounds are ionic.
What is the force which binds oppositely charged ions together?
Oppositely charged ions are attracted to each other because of the electromagnetic force, which is mathematically described by Coulomb's Law.
Ions are held close together by a?
The answer depends on if they are atoms or in an ionic bond. In an ionic bond oppositely charged ion are held together by the electronic force of attraction that exists between oppositely charged particles.
What is an ionic condition?
A chemical link between two atoms caused by the electrostatic force between oppositely-charged ions in an ionic compound.
