Ionic compounds are basically defined as being compounds where two or more ions are held next to each other by electrical attraction

Ionic Compounds

This is a summary of the past and present nomenclature or naming conventions for ionic compounds

Naming Compounds

An ionic compound is one in which at least two of the elements or compounds in the group are oppositely-charged ions held together

Ionic Compounds

Ionic compounds generally are very hard and have very high melting points. They are solids at room temperature

Face Centered Cubic

When metals react with non-metals they form an ionic compound. Ions have a charge because electrons are lost or gained in forming an ionic bond.
