Q
Q: Which type of bond is primarily responsible for the formation of ionic compounds?
Solution:
Ionic bonds are formed through the electrostatic attraction between positively and negatively charged ions.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
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.
