(Ionic bonding, Covalent bonding) - Coggle Diagram
Ionic bonding
An ionic charge is a giant 3D lattice giant structure where it is held by strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive and negative charge. It involves a metal positive and negative non metal.
-
Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points because of strong electrostatic forces which require a lot of energy to break
Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity when solid because they are in fixed position and cannot move around.
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when molten (liquid) or dissolved (aqueous) because the ions move around and carry charge.
-
Ions are formed between a metal and a non metal when an atom donates an electron to another atom to complete its outer shell.

-
Intermolecular forces of attraction are forces that are between molecules that hold the structure together
