What is the suffix for all binary ionic compounds of representative elements?
-ide
Hector claims that a single sodium ion and a single oxygen ion do not bond together to form a stable binary ionic compound. Is he correct?
Hector is correct. The sum of the charges of the two ions must be zero in order for them to form a stable ionic compound.
When do ionic bonds occur?
when electrons are transferred
