.... between one or more postive (metal) ions and one or more negative ions like chloride, sulfate, nitrate, carbonate etc.

Example: 2Al3+ + 3SO42- --> Al2(SO4)3

How do ionic bonds and ionic structures differ from covalent bonds and molecules?

Ionic bonds involve electrostatic attraction between ions and transfer of electrons.Covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons.


What does ionic bonding form and what does ot occur between?

Ionic bonds are formed by electrostatic attraction.


Ionic bonds are held together by what attraction?

Ionic bonds are held together by the attraction between positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions). This attraction is due to the electrostatic force between the oppositely charged ions.


Is an ionic bond stronger than a covalent?

Covalent bond is made up of electrostatic attraction but ionic bond is made up of weak waalander's force of attraction


What is a bond that is an electrostatic attraction between atoms of opposite charges?

Ionic bonds


What is the relative strength of an ionic bond?

Ionic bonds are typically strong relative to other types of chemical bonds, such as covalent bonds. They result from the electrostatic attraction between positively and negatively charged ions, leading to a strong attraction between the atoms involved. The strength of an ionic bond depends on the charges of the ions involved and the distance between them.


What causes ions to forn ionic bonds?

Electrostatic attraction between unlike charges, sometimes called a coulombic attraction


What ionic bonds are composed of?

Ionic bonds are composed of the electrostatic attraction between positively charged metal cations and negatively charged non-metal anions. This attraction occurs because one atom donates electrons to another atom, resulting in the formation of a stable compound. Ionic bonds are characterized by the transfer of electrons between atoms with large differences in electronegativity.


An ionic bond is the force of attraction between what charge of atoms?

Ionic Bonds form between positive cations, and negative anions and has an electronegativity of greater then 1.7. All ionic bonds are therefor formed between a metal and non-metal.


Does silver chloride have ionic bonds or covalent bonds?

Silver chloride has ionic bonds. The electrostatic attraction between the positively charged silver cation and the negatively charged chloride anion holds the compound together.


The chemical bonds that hold compounds together can be either?

ionic or covalent. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve stability.


What kind of binds is created by the attraction between atomic particles of opposite charge?
