electrovalent bond


electrovalent bond

n. See ionic bond.

electrovalent bond

n (Chemistry) a type of chemical bond in which one atom loses an electron to form a positive ion and the other atom gains the electron to form a negative ion. The resulting ions are held together by electrostatic attraction. Also called: ionic bond Compare covalent bond

Electrovalent Bond

 

a type of chemical bond, based on electrostatic interaction between ions of opposite charge. Relatively pure bonds of this type form in alkali metal halides, such as KF, since each atom of the alkali metal has a weakly bound electron (bonding energy, about 3–5 electron volts), whereas the halogen atoms have the greatest affinity for electrons. However, even in crystals (and particularly the molecules) of these compounds, complete transfer of the electron from the metal atom to the halogen atom does not take place in most cases. The previously widely held views concerning the formation of divalent, trivalent, or tetravalent ions, such as Ca2+, O2-, B3+, and Si4+, have not been confirmed in most cases, since here the chemical bond is formed in a more complex way. The concept of the effective ionic charge is used in estimating the degree to which a bond is electrovalent.
