Ionic Bond — definition?

Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Ionic Bond — definition?

Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Covalent Bond — role?

Shares electrons to achieve stability.

Cation — role?

Positively charged ion formed by loss of electrons.

Metallic Bond — function?

Delocalized electrons enable conductivity and malleability.

Anion — role?

Negatively charged ion formed by gaining electrons.

Electronegativity difference — indicates?

Type of bond; >1.7 suggests ionic.

Lattice Structure — location?

Repeating arrangement of ions in ionic compounds.

Covalent Bond — definition?

Sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Octet Rule — goal?

Atoms seek 8 electrons in outer shell.
