ERISA Basics: Preemption (Update) 5 American Bar Association http://www.bna.com/bnabooks/ababna/annual/2000/paris.pdf state insurance laws that are not inconsistent with Title I of ERISA. See, e.g., Fuller v. Norton, 86 F.3d 1016 (10th Cir. 1996) (state regulation of non-fully insured MEWA not in conflict with Title I of ERISA).
Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond , type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom. The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). A brief treatment of ionic bonds follows.
The oppositely charged ions â typically a great many of them â are then attracted to each other to form a solid. Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bond that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds. The ions are atoms that have gained one or more electrons (known as anions, which are negatively charged) and atoms that have lost one or more electrons (known as cations, which are positively charged).
