Question 4!

Svante Arrhenius discover the Ionic bond. Ionic bonds form when there are non-metals and metals bonding. To determine the ionic bonds you have to low electronagativity elements react with high electrongativity elements. When that happens it’s a complete transfer of electrons. An example is table salt, sodium chloride. Sodium makes one outer shell electron completely to chlorine which needs only on electron to fill its shell. This mixture between atoms is much like static electricity that is opposite chargers. Ionic bonds are hard and brittle and have a melting point at 500.C. Ionic bonds are solids at room temperature.
