Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions
Positive ions (e.g., Na+\text{Na}^+Na+, Ca2+\text{Ca}^{2+}Ca2+)
Negative ions (e.g., Cl−\text{Cl}^-Cl−, O2−\text{O}^{2-}O2−)
Match nearest noble gas configuration
3D structure with each ion attracting opposite charges
6 oppositely charged ions
Strong electrostatic forces throughout lattice
Greater charges = higher melting points
No conduction - ions fixed in lattice
Conducts - ions mobile as charge carriers
