This is called an ionic bond
Example:
- Na --> Na+ + 1 e-
- Cl + 1 e- --> Cl-
- Na+ + Cl- --> Na+Cl-

When lithium forms a bond what happens?
An electron is transferred to another elemnt and a lithium cation Li+ is produced.
What particle builds an electric charge when it is transferred from one object to another?
Electrons, they actually have an electric charge (like protons, but not neutrons), plus they are lighter and spin around the nucleus in the outer shell. This makes it easier to transfer to other atoms.
What happens to an electron when ionic bond forms?
Electrons are transferred from one element to another. when electrons are shared this is a covalent bond.
True or false A hydrogen bond is completed by the transfer of its sole electron to another element?
That is false. A hydrogen bond is characterized by an electrical attraction and a hydrogen is attracted to weakly negative atoms. It doesn't transfer its electron.
An ionic bond is one in which what shell electrons have been what?
an ionic bond is a bond formed when the electron in the outermost layer of an atom is given to another atom to "complete" the octet electron configuration of the receiving atom
When an electron is transferred from one atom to the next and the two atoms are then attracted to one another the type of bond is an?
ionic bond
When an electron is transferred from one atom to the next and the two atoms are then electrically attracted to one another the type of bond is a(n) bond.?
This is called an ionic bondExample:Na --> Na+ + 1 e-Cl + 1 e- --> Cl-Na+ + Cl- --> Na+Cl-
What is bonds that forms when electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
A electron bond is a bond that forms when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, When a electron bond forms the electrons are transferred to one atom back.
What do you call a bond that forms when electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
ionic bond
What process is used when electron's are transferred from one object to another to produce static electricity?
friction

How does an electron that was transferred to the shell of another atom stay there without another proton in the nucleus attracting it?
A common misconception is that proton 1 in the nucleus attracts electron 1 in the orbitals, proton 2 attracts electron 2, etc. This is very, very wrong: every proton attracts every electron all at once. Further electrons, as in beyond the neutral charge, are attracted in the same way as all other electrons, and held subject to a) repulsion and shielding from other electrons and b) remaing gaps in orbitals to fit them.
How does ionic bonds form?
Ionic bonds are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to have a full outer shell of electrons to make them stable.One atom pulls an electron from another atom.
What is a valence electon?
an electron of an atom, located in the outermost shell (valence shell) of the atom, that can be transferred to or shared with another atom.
