Back (Answer)

yes

#16
Front (Question)

Do metal atoms gain or lose electrons

Back (Answer)

Metal atoms always LOSE electrons to form POSITIVE metal ions

#17
Front (Question)

Do non-metal atoms gain or lose electrons

Back (Answer)

Non-metal atoms always GAIN electrons to form NEGATIVE metal ions

#18
Front (Question)

How are ionic compounds normally formed

Back (Answer)

when metal and non-metal elements combine

#19
Front (Question)

What is ionic bonding, by defenition

Back (Answer)

the electrostatic attraction between ions of opposite charge

#20
Front (Question)

What do ionic compounds exist as?

Back (Answer)

a giant lattice structure of oppositely charged ions

#21
Front (Question)

How do metallic structures exist as?

Back (Answer)

a giant metallic lattice of positively charged ions and delocalised outer electrons

#22
Front (Question)

What is electricity

Back (Answer)

the flow of charged particles ( electrons or ions)

#23
Front (Question)

What needs to happen to substances for them to conduct

Back (Answer)

must have charged particles which are free to move and carry the electricity

#24
Front (Question)

When do metals conduct electricity

Back (Answer)

when in liquid or solid
