Ionic Compounds and Ionic Bonding - Worksheet

Ionic compounds are formed when a metal reacts with a nonmetal, resulting in the transfer of electrons from the metal to the nonmetal. This transfer of electrons forms ionic bonds between the resulting ions. Specifically, the document defines ions, cations, anions, ionic compounds, and ionic bonds. It then provides examples of naming ionic compounds formed from combinations of metals and nonmetals, and shows how to draw dot and cross diagrams to represent the transfer of electrons and formation of ions during these reactions.
