Ions and ionic bonds

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Ion   an atom with a positive or negative charge, that is attracted to atoms with the opposite charge  
🗑
Covalent Bond   A bond between atoms in which the atoms share their valence electrons  
🗑
Ionization   the process in which an atom loses or gains electron(s) because atoms want full valence shells  
🗑
Ionic Bond   A bond between atoms in which the atoms are attracted to each other because they have opposite charges which were created through ionization  
🗑
Electron   a negatively charged particle in an atom, that is located on the atom's orbitals  
🗑
Valence Shell   Outermost orbital or shell of an atom  
🗑
Anion   an atom that receives an electron from another atom and gets a negative charge in the process of ionization  
🗑
Cation   an atom that gives an electron to another atom and gains a positive charge in the process of ionization  
🗑
Valence Electron   an electron in the outermost orbital in an atom(valence shell)  
🗑
