#6
Front (Question)

What is ionic bonding in terms of electrostatic attractions?

Back (Answer)

Ionic bonding: a strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions

#7
Front (Question)

Why do compounds with giant ionic lattices have high melting and boiling points?

Back (Answer)

Because there are strong electrostatic forces of attraction, which require lots of energy to overcome, they have high melting and boiling points.

#8
Front (Question)

When do ionic compounds conduct electricity?

Back (Answer)

When they are molten or liquid/in aqueous solution, but NOT when they are solid.

#9
Front (Question)

What two types of elements does ionic bonding occur between?

Back (Answer)

Metal and non-metal elements.
