Anions
- Positively charged ions - Loss of electron(s)
- Equal sharing of electrons - electrons are equally distributed
- Two or more atoms linked by chemical bonds formed by their valence electrons.
- Two or more different elements joined together chemically
-Electrically charged atoms, molecules, particles. ~ + or - due to electron loss or gain Redox reactions
- Unequal sharing of electrons - Somewhat weaker bond than its counterpart.
- Result from a sharing of electrons - usually the strongest chemical bonds
- Weak chemical bonds - Always involves a hydrogen atom (+) attracted to an oxygen (-) or nitrogen (-)
- Negatively charged ions - Gain of electron(s)
- Weakest of intermolecular forces - Dependent on interatomic distance
linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound
