Ionic bonds are formed between a metal and non-metal, for example sodium chloride. An atom of sodium will lose an electron and form a positive ion. An atom of chlorine will gain an electron and form a ...

A small piece of sodium metal is placed in a flask of chlorine gas. A little water helps expose the sodium so it can react with the chlorine gas. The reaction releases a lot of heat as the ionic ...

Learn more on the properties of ionic compounds in this podcast. Listen to the full series on BBC Sounds. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points, so they are in the solid state at room ...

Ionic compounds are also known as electrovalent compounds. The chemical bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another is known as Ionic bond. These compounds contain ions. Through ...
