Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which type of bond is primarily responsible for the formation of ionic compounds?
  • Step 1: Understand that atoms can gain or lose electrons.
  • Step 2: When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion (cation).
  • Step 3: When an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).
  • Step 4: Ionic bonds form when these oppositely charged ions attract each other.
  • Step 5: This attraction between the positive and negative ions creates an ionic compound.
