| What is a Positive Ion Called and How is it Formed? | A cation Loose electrons |
| What is Ionic Bonding? | Transfer of Electrons Between a Metal and a Non-Metal |
| How are Ionic Bonds Strongly Attracted to Each-other? | The Electrostatic Forces of Attraction hold the Ions Together |
| What are 2 Properties of Ionic Compounds? | 1. High Melting / Boiling Points 2. When Solid, they Cannot Conduct |
| Why can Molten or Aqueous Ionic Compounds Conduct Electricity? | Ions are Free to Move and Carry Electric Currents |
