they will attract if they have equal and opposite charges, such as Na and Cl
If a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion, they will come together and form an ionic bond. This bond is formed by the electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. This bond is typically strong and stable.
The attraction between two oppositely charged ions is called ionic bond. This happens when one atom gives up an electron (forming a positive ion) and another atom gains that electron (forming a negative ion), resulting in an electrostatic attraction between them.
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
An ion is either a positive charged or a negative charged atom. Negative ions have one or more extra electrons, and positive ones have one or more electrons not there.
Zinc ion (cation) is positive.
A positive ion is attracted to a negative ion.
No, the attraction between a positive ion and a negative ion results in an ionic bond, not a covalent bond. In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, while in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms.
Ionic bonds form between ions with opposite charges, such as a positive ion (cation) and a negative ion (anion). The positive ion is attracted to the negative ion, resulting in the formation of a strong electrostatic bond between them. This attraction helps to stabilize the ions and create a stable compound.
If a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion, they will come together and form an ionic bond. This bond is formed by the electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. This bond is typically strong and stable.
KClO4 has an ionic bond. In this compound, potassium (K) donates its electron to form a positive ion, while the perchlorate ion (ClO4) gains that electron to form a negative ion. The attraction between the positive and negative ions creates the ionic bond in KClO4.
The attraction between two oppositely charged ions is called ionic bond. This happens when one atom gives up an electron (forming a positive ion) and another atom gains that electron (forming a negative ion), resulting in an electrostatic attraction between them.
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
The distance between centers of positive and negative ion in the ionic crystals vary from one structure to another.
A positive ion is attracted to a negative ion.
Ionic bonds form between positive and negative ions.
positive ion forms when any electron removes from an atom and an anion called negative ion forms when an atom accepts an additional electron
False. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, rather than the transfer of electrons which occurs in ionic bonds where there is attraction between positive and negative ions. In a covalent bond, the sharing of electrons leads to a more stable arrangement for both atoms involved.
