You are to discuss how we determine ionic bonds and then determine how we discover the bond and formation of the molecule
"An ionic bond is a chemical bond between two ions with an electron and a proton. They are also known as electrovalent bonds." (answers.com -ionic-bond) These bonds were Discovered in 1897 by J.J. Thompson discovering that the most important part to to ionic bonding is the electron. (answers.com -chemical-bonding) This is important because an electron is either lost or gained in the process of bonding. An ionic bond is usually a non metal and a metal bonding, examples of the bond would be sodium chloride or also known as salt. Chemist John Dalton Came up with the theory that all known things are made of atoms and atoms are indestructible and indivisible, (iun) enabling another physicist by the name of Amedeo Avogadro to research the theory and describe the molecular model (which is the arrangement of the atoms within a molecule). His description of the molecule was eventually used by Stanislao Cannizzaro to figure out the atomic mass of elements was later became important in the discovery of ionic bonding. The name of the bonding product is the name of the metal then followed by the non metal . (Brighthub)
