Ionic Compound
Ionic Compound
Sodium: 1s22s22p63s1
The element sodium has an
excess of 1 electron as stated
in its electron configuration.
Let’s say the element sodium is to have a
chemical bond with the element Chlorine.
Chlorine : 1s22s22p63s23p5

Affinity Table
Formation of Ionic Compounds
• The ion of Sodium and Chlorine had combined
because the ion of sodium is positive and the
iod of chlorine is negative, making it attract
each other.
• The bond these 2 had done is called ionic
bond.
• This type of bond is formed by the
combination of metals and non-metals.
• This kind of bond is usually common in Group
1A, 2A, 3A and the elements in Group 6A and
7A.

Lithium Oxide (w/2 lithium atoms)
Binary Compound
Polyatomic Ions
• The elements we had combined in the
previous slide is called a binary compound, for
it is a combination between 2 elements.
• There are also compounds that is made up of
3 different elements. These compounds are
called the Ternary compounds.
• Ternary compounds consist of one metallic
cation and one polyatomic anion.
