Question
What is an ionic bond?
✓

Answer

  • The molecule of an ionic compound has two constituents namely cation (positive ion / basic radical) and anion (negative ion / acidic radical).
  • There is a force of attraction between these ions as they are oppositely charged, and that is called the ionic bond.
  • The force of attraction between one positive charge on a cation and one negative charge on an anion makes one ionic bond.
