NaCl is an ionic compound, not a molecule. The positive sodium ion and the negative chloride ion are held together by an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions.
The electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged sodium ion (Na+) and the negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) holds the Na-Cl molecule together in an ionic bond.
Ionic bonds
They are held together by an electrostatic force causing an ionic bond.
No, ionic bonds are not considered intermolecular forces. Ionic bonds are formed between atoms by the transfer of electrons, resulting in the attraction between oppositely charged ions. Intermolecular forces, on the other hand, refer to the forces of attraction or repulsion between molecules.
An intramolecular force is any force that holds together the atoms making up a molecule or compound. There are three main types of intramolecular forces: - Ionic -Covalent - Metallic Ionic Intramolecular forces These forces exist between atoms of ionic compounds (molecules formed by transfer of electrons). It is the force of attraction between the cation (positively charged atom) and anion (negatively charged atom) in a molecule. Covalent intramolecular forces These forces exist between covalent compounds (molecules formed by sharing of electrons). It is the force of attraction between the bonded pair od electrons with the nucleii of the the two atoms
The electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged sodium ion (Na+) and the negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) holds the Na-Cl molecule together in an ionic bond.
The force that holds atoms together in a molecule is called a chemical bond. It can be either ionic or covalent, depending on how electrons are shared or transferred between atoms.
Ionic bonds
Bonds hold atoms together. There are hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and covalent bonds.
They are held together by an electrostatic force causing an ionic bond.
There are two: Ionic Bonds, and Covalent Bonds
No, ionic bonds are not considered intermolecular forces. Ionic bonds are formed between atoms by the transfer of electrons, resulting in the attraction between oppositely charged ions. Intermolecular forces, on the other hand, refer to the forces of attraction or repulsion between molecules.
The force of attraction that holds two atoms together is called a chemical bond. This bond is typically formed by the sharing or transfer of electrons between the atoms, bringing them closer together to form a stable molecule. Examples of chemical bonds include covalent bonds, ionic bonds, and metallic bonds.
The attraction between the two are called ionic forces or ionic bonds.
Chemical bonds come in two varieties. They can be either covalent or ionic. The bonds where they share electrons is called covalent bond and is stronger than ionic bonds where one molecule gives up its electrons to the other.
