IONIC BOND
• TRANSFERRING OF ELECTRONS
OBJECTIVES:
ANSWER:
It a bond which involves complete transfer of electrons.
How sodium chloride or salt able to attained stability or able
to transfer electron completely?
GROUP ACTIVITY
GUIDE QUESTIONS:
•What kind of element forms cation after •Answer: Metals form cations because they completely
transfer or give away electrons.
ionic bonding?
•Answer: Non-metals form anions because they attract
•What kind of element forms anion after electrons toward themselves.
ionic bonding? •Answer: Ions form after ionic bonding because this
type of bond involves complete transfer of electrons.
•Why do ions form after ionic bonding?
•Answer: Yes, after ionic bonding the participating

metals? •
What should be the difference in the electronegativity of two
elements for it to become ionic?
Answer:
For it to become ionic it should have the difference greater than 1.9.
WILL ALL COMBINATION OF METALS AND NON
METALS FORM IONIC BOND?
• Not all metal and non- metal combinations will result in ionic bond .
• Only those with electronegativity difference of more than 1.9 will result to an ionic bond.
• There are compounds where the combining atoms do not transfer electrons or accept electrons.
Instead, the combining atoms are held together by shared electrons. At this point you can now
introduce the concept of bonding by sharing of electrons which is called a covalent bond.
Example:
The best example of a metal-non-metal combination which did not result to ionic bond is
AlCl3 because the electronegativity difference is only 1.5. Thus, instead of ionic bond
the chemical combination formed a covalent bond.
Relate the saying, its better to give than to
receive to the topic.
