Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons to obtain a full outer electron shell. Atoms that gain electrons become negatively charged anions, while atoms that lose electrons become positively charged cations. Common ionic compounds include sodium chloride (table salt), formed from sodium cations and chloride anions; sodium hypochlorite (bleach), formed from sodium and hypochlorite ions; and calcium carbonate (chalk), formed from calcium and carbonate ions.

-When an atom is attracted to

an unequal number of
electrons and protons, the
atom is called an ION.

-Atoms that gain electrons make


negatively charged ions called anions.
Atoms that lose electrons make
positively charged ions called cations.

outer electron shells are full. They become
ELECTROVALENCE in full when they have eight electrons in

They get eight electrons by either
borrowing some from or giving some to
another atom.
