An ionic bond is when an electron leaves one atom and exothermically enters into orbit around another. These to oppositely charged ions now attract eachother. Ionic bonds are generally formed between metals and nonmetals. Ionic bonds result from the mutual attraction between oppositely charged ions.They tend to be stronger than covalent bonds due to the coulombic attraction between ions of opposite charges. To maximize the attraction between those ions, ionic compounds form crystal lattices of alternating cations and anions. The atoms are thus held together by the attractive force between a positively and a negatively charged ion. An ionic bond is typically formed between a metal and a non-metal. A bond between two elements caused by a difference in charge created by the donation of an electron by one of the atoms to another.
There are many types of chemical bonds and forces that bind molecules together. The two most basic types of bonds are characterized as either ionic or covalent. In ionic bonding, atoms transfer electrons to each other. Ionic bonds require at least one electron donor and one electron acceptor. In contrast, atoms with the same electronegativity share electrons in covalent bonds, because neither atom preferentially attracts or repels the shared electrons. Introduction Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.
