2: Compounds - Ionic and Molecular
( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
- 2.1: Two Types of Bonding
- Atoms have a tendency to have eight electrons in their valence shell. The attraction of oppositely charged ions is what makes ionic bonds.
- 2.2: Ions
- Ions can be positively charged or negatively charged. A Lewis diagram is used to show how electrons are transferred to make ions and ionic compounds.
