Ionic Bond
The attraction between oppositely charged ions
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to get two different types of people to sit together at a dinner party, one who loves to chat and the other who prefers to listen. This situation is similar to an ionic bond, where oppositely charged ions are drawn to each other because they complement each other's needs. Just as the chatty person (like the positively charged ion) and the listener (like the negatively charged ion) naturally pair up to balance the conversation, positive and negative ions attract each other to form a stable ionic compound.
