Term
Salts are formed by ionic bonds.
Definition
Which type of bond forms a salt?
Term
Electronegativity difference between two elements determines the type of bond they'll have.

Term
Transfer of valence electrons from metal to a a nonmental.
Definition
What is an ionic bond?
Term
Electrostatic force (attraction between pos. and neg. ion) holds ionic bonds together.
Definition
What type of force holds ionic bonds together?
Term
Salts
Definition
Ionic compounds are known as ____.
Term
high
Definition
The atoms in an ionic compound have a relatively ____ electronegativity difference.
Term
because the non-metals have similar electronegativities, they must share electrons in order to obtain 8 valence electrons
