Did you know?
Ionic bonds are formed when an atom with a full outer shell donates an electron to an atom with an incomplete outer shell. Ionic bonds are strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are directional, which means they are stronger when the ions are arranged in a specific order.
