Carbon (C)
Sodium (Na)
Oxygen (O)
Nitrogen (N)
2. What is the primary force of attraction in an ionic bond?
Covalent forces
London dispersion forces
Electrostatic forces
Hydrogen bonding
3. Ionic bonds typically form between a and a .
4. When an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion called an .
5. The smallest whole-number ratio of ions in an ionic compound is represented by its unit.
6. Describe the process of electron transfer that occurs when sodium (Na) and fluorine (F) form an ionic bond.
