Document Summary

Ionic bonds involve electrostatic attraction (attraction of opposite charges: attractive forces extend in all directions. Ionic bonding yields ionic solids (or liquids: chemical formula shows ratio of anions to cations, metallic bonds. Involve a metal or metals: overlap of the metal atoms" valence orbitals. Ions held together by electrostatic attraction of opposite charges ionic bonding: attractive forces extend in all directions, non-directional. Ions arranged in a lattice structure: every cation surrounded by anions and every anion surrounded by cations, maximizes attractive forces between cations and anions, no ionic molecule , chemical formula is the simplest ion ratio. Indirectly related to the distance between the ions (size of the ions: describes attractive forces between 2 particles of opposite charge, trends in lattice energy. If charge 1 and 2 are constant, smaller ions= greater lattice energy: larger charges= greater lattice energy. Ion charge contributes more than ion size: properties of ionic solids.
