anion
|
(Chemistry) a negatively charged ion; an ion that is attracted to the anode during electrolysis.
|
|
Cation
|
An ion or group of ions having a positive charge and characteristically moving toward the negative electrode in electrolysis.
|
|
chemical bond
|
Any of several forces, especially the ionic bond, covalent bond, and metallic bond, by which atoms or ions are bound in a molecule or crystal.
|
|
crystal lattice
|
A geometric arrangement of the points in space at which the atoms, molecules, or ions of a crystal occur. Also called space lattice.
|
|
ironic bond
|
A chemical bond between two ions with opposite charges, characteristic of salts. Also called electrovalent bond.
|
|
ironic compound
|
In chemistry, an ionic compound is a chemical compound in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds.
|
|
Lattice energy
|
(Chemistry) chem the energy required to separate the ions of a crystal to an infinite distance, usually expressed in joules per mole.
|
|
formula unit
|
A formula unit in chemistry is the empirical formula of any ionic or covalent network solid compound used as an independent entity for stoichiometric calculations. It is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound.[1] Examples include ionic NaCl and K2O and covalent networks such as SiO2 and C (as diamond or graphite).
