Ionic Bonds =
Ionic Bonding = When a metal and non metal react
Ionic Bonds = the electrostatic forces of attraction betweeen oppositely charged ions
What they form
The oppositely charged ions are arranged to form...
Giant Lattice Structures
Ionic Compounds often form crystals
The properties of Ionic Compounds are ...
High Melting and Boiling Points
- Ionic Bonds are strong
- A lot of energy is needed to break them
Conductive when liquid
- Only conductive if ions are free
- Only liquid - molten substances etc.
- Ions = charged particles
