Ionic Bonds

Because of their opposite charges

Because they are the same size

Because they have the same charge

Because they are both metals

A force that holds two atoms together

A type of atom

A molecule made of two elements

A reaction between acids and bases

Ionic bonds result from the transfer of electrons from one atom to another

Ionic bonds occur between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion

Ionic bonds result in the formation of molecules

Ionic bonds always occur between two metals

All of the above

Alkali metal ions are attracted to the halide ions outside the window, representing ionic attraction.

Alkali metal ions are more reactive than halide ions.

Halide ions are more attracted to the teacher than alkali metal ions.

Alkali metal ions are not interested in forming compounds.
