Electron transfer between lithium (Li) and fluorine (F). Forming an ionic bond, Li and F become Li + and F − ions.. An ion (/ ˈ aɪ. ɒ n,-ən /) [1] is an atom or molecule with a net electrical charge.
In 1941 Van Arkel recognised three extreme materials and associated bonding types. Using 36 main group elements, such as metals, metalloids and non-metals, he placed ionic, metallic and covalent bonds on the corners of an equilateral triangle, as well as suggested intermediate species.
Metallic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that arises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons (in the form of an electron cloud of delocalized electrons) and positively charged metal ions.
Ion-exchange resin beads. An ion-exchange resin or ion-exchange polymer is a resin or polymer that acts as a medium for ion exchange, that is also known as an ionex. [1] It is an insoluble matrix (or support structure) normally in the form of small (0.25–1.43 mm radius) microbeads, usually white or yellowish, fabricated from an organic polymer substrate.
The 2.3 kW NSTAR ion thruster developed by NASA for the Deep Space 1 spacecraft during a hot fire test at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (1999) NEXIS ion engine test (2005) A prototype of a xenon ion engine being tested at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (2005)
Ion-exchange resin beads Ion-exchange column used for protein purification. Ion exchange is a reversible interchange of one species of ion present in an insoluble solid with another of like charge present in a solution surrounding the solid.
Ionian, of or relating to Io, a moon of the planet Jupiter; Ionian stage, a proposed name for the now-defined Chibanian stage in stratigraphy.; Ionic, of or relating to an ion, an atom or molecule with a net electric charge
