Type 1 (Ionic) Bonding Worksheet

For each pair of elements below draw electron dot structures showing the valence electrons in each atom. T h e n
d raw arrows to show where the valence electrons will go during a chemical reaction. Write the name of each
type I ionic compound. Finally, fill in the n table below each reaction. Refer to the sample shown.

Reactions- draw a picture showing each reaction & name the ionic Atoms Valence Electron transfer Ions formed
