The Salt Love
Story
The Salt Love Story
Once upon a time a lonely Sodium (Sodium
has only 1 valence electron) atom was taking a
stroll in a park. Suddenly it crossed paths with the
most attractive Chlorine (Chlorine has 7 electrons)
atom it had ever seen. The attraction between the
two atoms was obvious, so they exchanged phone
numbers. After several dates for coffee… walks on
the beach…watch movie… It was apparent that
the atoms had fallen in love.
The Salt Love Story
Since Chlorine has 7 valence electrons and Sodium
has only 1 valence electron, an ionic bond can occur
between the two atoms by Sodium giving its 1 electron to
Chlorine who just needs 1 more electron to have a full
outer shell. “You complete me!!!”, Chlorine atom said.
Since one atom is positive and one atom is negative, the
opposite charges cause them to come together in an
ionic compound. And they became a famous power
couple known as Sodium Chloride a.k.a. Table Salt.

– metals.
Materials Needed:
Crayons and Periodic Table of Elements
Procedure:
Locate the different types of elements. Color
the area with metallic elements green; the
non-metallic elements orange; the
semimetals blue; the noble gases yellow ;

metalloids, on the right side of the periodic table of elements
(groups 1-13)
C. Facing the periodic table, metals are located before
metalloids, on the left side of the periodic table of elements
(groups 1-13)
D. Facing the periodic table, non-metals are found after
metalloids, on the right side of the periodic table of elements
(groups 14-17)

the periodic table?
______2. Where can you find the non-metals
in the periodic table?

number of valence electrons?
A. The atomic number
B. The group number
______5. What have you notice in the number of valence
electrons of metals, non-metals and noble gases?
A. Metals have lesser valence electrons than non -metals
and all noble gases have8 valence electrons except for
helium, which has 2 valence electrons.
B. Metals have more valence electrons than non -metals
and all noble gases have 18 valence electrons except for
helium, which has 2 valence electrons.

for Non-Metals.
______6. less than 4 valence electrons
______7. more than 4 valence electrons
______8. low electronegativity
______9. High electronegativity

______11. high ionization energy
Activity 2: Lewis Symbol
For numbers 1-3, arrange the elements found
on table 1 in increasing order:
1) valence electrons
2) electronegativity values
3) ionization energy
4) What do you notice with the number of
valence electrons, electronegativity values
and ionization energies of the elements?
A. As the number of valence electrons
increases, electronegativity and ionization
energy decrease.
B. As the number of valence electrons
increases, electronegativity and ionization
energy also increases.
5) What kind of element has the greatest
tendency to attract electrons? Why?
A. Metals have the greatest tendency to attract
electrons because they have low
electronegativity.
B. B. Non-metals have the greatest tendency to
attract electrons because they have high
electronegativity.
6) What kind of element requires high energy to
remove its valence electrons
A. Metals Non-Metals
Activity 3: Bonding by Transfer of
Electrons
In this activity, the learners are expected to:
1. Illustrate how ionic bonding is formed.
2. Show how ions are formed.
Materials Needed:
Periodic Table of Elements
Electrons
Procedure:
1. Select a Metallic and a non-metallic
element. Write the symbol of the selected
elements. Take note of the Electronegativity
value of both elements. Subtract the
electronegativity value of the metallic element
from the non-metallic element.
Electrons
Electrons
Procedure:
2. With the use of an arrow, show the
complete transfer of electrons.
Electrons
Procedure:
3. Indicate the formation of cation and anion.
4. Make 3 combinations that will result to

ionic bonding by following steps 1-3.
Complete the table below.
Electrons
For numbers 1 -2, choose from the given options below.
A. Metals form cations because they completely give away
electrons
B. Non-metals form anions because they attract electrons
toward themselves
C. Both metals and non-metals can form either cations or
anions because both elements have the tendency to
transfer electrons.
______1. What kind of element forms cation after ionic
bonding? Why?
______2. What kind of element forms anion after ionic
bonding?
Electrons
______3. Why do ions form after ionic
bonding?
A. Ions form after ionic bonding because this
type of bond involves sharing of electrons.
B. Ions form after ionic bonding because this
type of bond involves complete transfer of
electrons.
Electrons
______4. Did the atoms attain stability after
ionic bonding? Explain your answer.
A. No, after ionic bonding the participating
atoms either loses or gains electrons thereby
making it unstable for having an extra or
lacking electron.
B. Yes, after ionic bonding the participating
atoms attain the stable electronic
configuration of the nearest noble gas.
Electrons
______5. How can you say that ionic bonding
will take place between metals and non-
metals?
A. Ionic bonding will take place between
metal and non-metal with electronegativity
difference of greater than 1.9
B. Ionic bonding will take place between
metal and non-metal with electronegativity
difference of less than 1.9
Electrons
______6. Will all combinations of metals and
non- metals form ionic bond? Why?
A. Yes, because metals tend to give away
their electrons while non-metals tend to
accept electrons.
B. Only those with electronegativity
difference of more than 1.9 will result to an
ionic bond.
