Question

what are the condition for formation of ionic bond?

Answer 1

HEY DEAR ...



Two atoms must be different.
Ionization potential of one atom must be small.
Electron affinity of second atom must be high.
Electro negativity of second atom must be high.
Difference of E.N. between two will be greater than or equal to 1.7.
WHICH GROUP FORM IONIC BOND:
IA, IIA, IIIA Vs VIA, VIIA

HOPE , IT HELPS ...

Answer 2

the conditions for formation of ionic bond are,
1. low ionization energy of the metal
2 high electron affinity of the non metal
3 high lattice energy for the crystal
4.the difference between the electronegativity of two atoms must be greater than two
