Ionization energies Lewis symbol

The formation of Na from Na and CP from CI2 indicates that an electron has been lost by a sodium atom and gained by a chlorine atom. Electron transfer to form oppositely charged ions occurs when the atoms involved differ greatly in their attraction for electrons. NaCl is a rather typical ionic compound because it consists of a metal of low ionization energy and a nonmetal with a high affinity for electrons. (Sections 7.4 and 7.5) Using Lewis electron-dot symbols (and showing a chlorine atom rather than the CI2 molecule), we can represent this reaction as follows ... [Pg.278]
