What is ionic bonding

strong electrostatic forces between cations and anions in fixed positions in a 3D crystal lattice

2
New cards

Properties

High Mp/Bp: strong forces between cations and anions that require a lot of energy to break

brittle: when hit, ions move within lattice and repel each other, causing them to break

hard: Strong forces therefore, strong gorces required to disrupt

3
New cards

Can ionic bonded elements conduct electricity

No in solid state, yes in liquid as the ions are free to move
