Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Interpret the physical property of an ionic compound and interpret whether the ionic compound contained positive or negative charge ions.
Interpret the overall charge of an ionic compound.
Interpret that the ionic compound contains cation and anion.
Concept Introduction:
The periodic table consist of number of elements which are arranged according to
Some loses electron to become positively charged while some accepts electron to become negatively charged species and when these ionic species are combined together to form ionic compound which has high melting and boiling point.
The electrostatic forces of attraction are stronger in ionic compound.
