An ionic bond forms when one or more electrons from one atom are transferred to one or more other atoms. This leaves the first atom positively charged (a cation), and the other negatively charged (the anion). The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions is the ionic bond.

What is The force of attraction that holds atoms or ions together?

The force of attraction that holds atoms or ions together is called a chemical bond. This bond can be formed by the sharing of electrons (covalent bond) or the transfer of electrons (ionic bond) between atoms. These bonds are crucial for the formation of molecules and compounds.

What is an ionic Comound?

An ionic compound is a chemical compound in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bounds. Ionic bonds is a type of chemical bond that can often form between metal and non-metal ions (or polyatomic ions such as ammonium.) through electrostatic attraction. In short, it is a bond formed by the attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
