10.4 Inside Ionic Compounds: Objectives
Objectives
• Define the terms ionic bonding, ionic compound, and
giant ionic structure
• Explain how the giant ionic structure model explains the
properties of ionic compounds
• Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of a physical
model.
What is ionic bonding?
What is ionic bonding?
Is the electrostatic attraction between the positive ions and negative ions
holds the crystal together.
Ionic bonds act in all directions. In the solid state, they hold the positive and
negative ions in a three-dimensional pattern. The pattern is called a giant
ionic structure.
Objectives
• Define the term covalent bond
• Draw dot-and-cross diagrams to show shared electron
pairs in simple molecules
