Ionic bonds transfer electrons
In a simplified view of an ionic bond, the bonding electron is not shared at all, but transferred. In this type of bond, the outer atomic orbital of one atom has a vacancy which allows addition of one or more electrons. These newly added electrons potentially occupy a lower…
Ionic versus covalent bonding by electronegativity
Ionic bonding is a type of electrostatic interaction between atoms which have a large electronegativity difference. There is no precise value that distinguishes ionic from covalent bonding, but a difference of electronegativity of over 1.7 is likely to be ionic, and a…

Paid APCs should mean open machine access
High Article Processing Charges (APCs) have been paid for many of these articles to be available under a licence permitting re-use, such as CC-BY. We believe that restricting machine access to such articles violates the principles of openness and is at minimum unfair with…
