3.1.3.1 - ionic bonding

Fully resourced lesson covering the following with information and tasks:

Ionic bonding involves electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a lattice.

The formulas of compound ions eg sulfate, hydroxide, nitrate, carbonate and ammonium.

Students should be able to:
• predict the charge on a simple ion using the position of the element in the Periodic Table
• construct formulas for ionic compounds.
