Understanding the behavior of materials at their interfaces — where they connect to and interact with other materials — is central to engineering a variety of devices used to process, store and ...

MIT researchers have run ionic thruster experiments and found they may be a far more efficient source of propulsion than conventional jet engines. In their experiments, they found that ionic wind ...

Dot and cross diagrams help us to model when ions are formed from atoms. Here’s an example using sodium and chlorine. They form ions which bond to form sodium chloride. 2. Work out how many electrons ...

Chemical bonding is the force of attraction that holds atoms together to form molecules or compounds. There are two primary types of chemical bonds: ionic and covalent bonds. Both these bonds play a ...

The chemical bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another is called ionic bond. It is also known as electrovalent bond. And the compounds containing ionic bonds are called ionic ...
