Why you should ditch your denim at 53: Research suggests jeans should be left for younger generations. 1  Research is bad news for denim devotees like Jeremy Clarkson, 56. 2  Study also found most people spend up to five days looking for ideal fit. 3  Shoppers wait average of three years before buying another pair.
Ionic comes from ion as you might have guessed. An ion is a charged particle (either positive or negative), and ionic is the adjective meaning charged. An ionic bond is a chemical bond based on electrostatic attraction (the attraction of charges), and we generally associate it with the bonding of metals to non-metals.
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.
