Show how an ionic bond forms between the metal cation and the non-metal ion using the three techniques we discussed in class for two compounds made from the heavy metal, tin. The compounds are SnCl 2 and SnO 2 . Please be aware that tin is NOT using the same oxidation state in the two compounds

Dear student 
Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
