Question
Which of the following BEST describes the ionic bonds?
- Bond held together by a sea of electrons
- Bond of two ions of opposite charges held together by electrostatic forces
- Bond held together by the sharing of electrons
- Bond between hydrogen and an anion or polyatomic ion
Hint:
Atoms exchange electrons to form ions and then ionic bonds.
The correct answer is: Bond of two ions of opposite charges held together by electrostatic forces
- Atoms give or receive an electrons to achieve stability.
- This leads to formation of oppositely ions which attract each other forming ionic bonds.
