In this lesson, we will learn how to describe ionic bonding in terms of electrostatic attraction and use it to explain the properties of ionic structures.
Students will be able to
Q1:
Which of the following types of structure is formed when anions and cations bond together?
Q2:
Listed in the table are a range of anions and cations commonly found in salts.
Which anion and cation in the table would attract each other most strongly?
Which anion and cation in the table would attract each other least strongly?
Q3:
Consider the anions and cations listed in the table.
Which anion-cation pair would produce the strongest ionic bond?
Which anion-cation pair would produce the weakest ionic bond?
