How to Make Ionic Compounds
Howcast - Ionic compounds consist of two or more ions held together by electrical attraction. Ions with a positive charge are called cations while ions with a negative charge are called anions.

Why do covalent compounds share electrons?
A covalent compound forms when electrons are shared and this will happen when you have 2 nonmetals, or 2 anions, bonding together. The reason these elements share their electrons is because they have a small difference in...

Naming Covalent Compounds the EASY way | How to pass Chemistry
This videos will cover how to name covalent compounds. It is important to remember that we have to use prefixes when we name covalent compounds. Covalent bonds, or compounds, form between 2 nonmetals, or 2 anions. In a covalent bond the...

Understanding Frenkel Defects
Switching Locations: Understanding Frenkel Defects In the event that an ion is absent from its lattice site, resulting in a vacancy or a hole in that location, and it occupies an interstitial site, the compound will be able to maintain...

Anion Vacancies and F Centres in Metal Excess Defects
The formation of F-centers in a crystal is caused by the presence of anion vacancies, which are caused by the presence of metal excess defects. Alkali metal halides, such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride, are examples of...

The Schottky defect and its consequences
The Schottky defect and its consequences Ionic crystals of type A B exhibit a Schottky defect, where an equal number of anions and cations are absent from lattice sites to maintain electrical neutrality. This defect is present in highly...
