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.
1) Li + F => LiF
2) Ca + O => CaO
3) Be + F => BeF2
3) Mg + S => MgS
4) K + F => KF
