In order to have a stable arrangement of 8 valence electrons, metal atoms are likely to _____________ electrons.

In an ionic compound, the total positive charge of all the positive ions ________ the total negative charge of all the negative ions.

Because the force of attraction between the positive and negative ions is so strong, ionic compounds have ________________  melting points.
