IONIC SUBSTANCES
  1. giant ionic lattice structure
    1. millions of strong ionic bonds
      1. lots of energy needed to break these
        1. high melting and boiling points
      2. metal and non metal compound
        1. when solid - don't conduct electricity
          1. ions can't move
          2. when melted/dissolved in water - conduct electricity
            1. ions can move more freely
            2. gaining or losing electrons
              1. metals lose electrons
                1. non metals gain electrons
                  1. to achieve a full outer shell
                  2. held together by strong forces of attraction
                    1. between + and - ions
                    2. EXAMPLES
                      1. Sodium Chloride NaCl
                        1. Magnesium Oxide MgO
                          1. Calcium Bromide CaBr2
