What is Ionic Bonding
electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions)
Explain the bonding’s intermolecular forces
It has high melting points, therefore it has high intermolecular forces indicating it’s very difficult to seperate forces between molecules
What are some characteristics of Ionic bonding
they are crystalline, brittle, soluble,
Explain the relationship between the ionic size and electronegativities
Small Ions indicate high electronegativity because their valence electrons are closer to the nucleus, so stronger attraction of shared bonding electrons. (Vice Versa)
Explain its charge density.
If the Ionic Bonding is composed more protons, that means all these particles are squished together and weigh more so it has a higher charge density. Exact opposite, if it has less protons, therefore it weighs much less and has a smaller charge density.
