Question

1.Why is an ionic compound unlikely to consist of two positively charged ions?
2.Why is an ionic compound unlikely to consist of two negatively charged ions?
guys pls plsss answer fast no its urgent!
i will thank you and mark as brainliest :)
(i am giving 20 points!!!)

Answer 1

Answer:

Positive charges repel each other, so an ionic compound is not likely between two positively charged ions.

A calcium atom has two valence electrons. ... An iodine atom has seven valence electrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

1 . Ionic bonding is a chemical bond between a positive ion and negative ion. Ionization energy, electronegativity, and lattice energy are the factors that influence the formation of ionic bonds of elements.

2.Ionic bonding is the attraction between positively- and negatively-charged ions. These oppositely charged ions attract each other to form ionic networks (or lattices). Electrostatics explains why this happens: opposite charges attract and like charges repel.
