Practice Ionic Bond in Chemistry
Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.
Quick Recap
A bond formed when one atom transfers electrons to another, creating oppositely charged ions that attract.
One atom gives electrons away; another takes them. Opposites attract.
