Ch 6.1 Ionic Bonding

Read Chapter 6.1 Ionic Bonding
Outline the reading in your Science Notebook & include major points and diagrams/tables.
You should focus on the following essential questions:
- When is an atom unlikely to react
- What is one way elements can achieve stable electron configuration
-How does the structure of an ionic compound affect its properties

video clip: Introduction to Ionic Bonding

This video is an introduction to ionic bonding, which is one type of chemical bonding. Ionic bonds hold together metal and nonmetal atoms. In ionic bonding, electrons are transferred from a metal atom to a nonmetal atom, creating ions. These ions have opposite charge, so they stick together.

Video clip: Ionic Bonding Part 2

We'll look at the details of ionic bonding, using sodium chloride as an example. Both atoms have unfilled valence shells, which are the outermost energy level. Electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal, creating ions with an opposite charge. The atoms are then held together because of the attraction between the opposite charges
