When do ionic bonds occur?
Occurs between ions of opposite charge
Between metals and non metals
Involves electronegativity
Electronegativity
The pull an atom has on electrons
Strong electronegativity
Strong pull for electrons
Weak electronegativity
Weak pull for electrons
Why ionic bonds occur?
Atoms will steal an electron from another atom. This changes the net charge to either positive or negative. They are no longer atoms and become ions
Compounds
2 ions coming together
Do ions have the same protons and neutrons?
No, they have a different number of protons and neutrons
Cations
Positive ions
Anions
Negative Ions
