What is the force between oppositely charged sub atomic particles?
Electrostatic force of attraction
What holds crystals of ionic compounds together?
Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
The properties of both ionic and molecular compounds are related to the?
strengths of attraction between the particles in the compounds
What is the differnece between an ionic compound and a covolant compound?
In an ionic compound, atoms transfer electrons from one to the other, creating oppositely charged ions. The ionic bond is an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds tend to form between metals and nonmetals. In covalent compounds, atoms share electrons. Most covalent compounds form between nonmetals.
What are two physical characteristics of ionic compounds What is one chemical characteristics of ionic compounds?
Ionic compounds are hard and rigid due to strong forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points, again due to strong forces of attraction between the ions. Ionic compounds dissolve easily in water.
How are ions held together in an ionic bond?
They are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds
What happens to the forces of attraction between charged objects and uncharged as the distance between them decreases?
As the distance decreases the attraction increases
Ions are held close together by a?
The answer depends on if they are atoms or in an ionic bond. In an ionic bond oppositely charged ion are held together by the electronic force of attraction that exists between oppositely charged particles.
In salt What is the bond between sodiuma and chlorine?
Ionic (electric) attraction forces of (sodium) Na+ and (chlorine) Cl- ions. (i.e. of oppositely charged particles)
What is attraction between two oppositely changed ions called?
magnetism
What is an attraction between particles of the same substance called?
An attraction between particles of the SAME substance is called cohesion.
What are ionic compounds held together by?
electrostatic force of attraction between the positive cations and the negative anions.
