A type of bond that forms when two atoms with opposite charges are attracted to each other.

1 answer

The type of bond you are describing is called an ionic bond. Ionic bonds form when one atom donates an electron to another atom, resulting in the formation of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions). The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions holds them together in a stable compound.
