Ionic Bonding
Aims
To understand what are ionic and covalent
bonding. To know how these different
types of bonding affect the melting and
boiling points.
Keywords
Ionic bonding, covalent bonding.

Full electron shells
Each shell has a maximum number of electrons that it can
hold. Electrons will fill the shells nearest the nucleus first.
2nd shell holds
1st shell holds a maximum of
a maximum of 8 electrons
2 electrons
+
If we “take away” the electron
we’re left with just a positive +
charge:
