  • Understanding Ionic Bonds: Electrostatic Attraction Explained
    The force present in an ionic bond is electrostatic force of attraction.

    Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. It is a type of chemical bond that occurs between a metal and a non-metal. In this bond, the metal loses electrons to the non-metal, resulting in the formation of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged non-metal ions. The electrostatic force of attraction between these oppositely charged ions holds them together, forming an ionic bond.
