Why does an ionic bond transfer electrons instead of sharing?

When there is a whole transfer of valence electron between the atoms is called an ionic bond. In this type of bond construction, the atoms get contrarily charged.

The ionic bonds are formed due to electronegativity. According to Pauling, the capability of an atom to draw electrons towards itself is called electronegativity.

When there is a huge contrast in electronegativity between the atoms, the electrons are completely transferred between the atoms.

The atom that relinquishes an electron are called a cation and is positive whereas the atom that acquires an electron are called anions and are negatively charged.

Therefore, due to electronegativity, ionic bonds are formed.

conservation of momentum law states :

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

momentum p (kg-m/s)= mass * velocity

say moving car=1 000 kg, velocity = 10 m/s then p = 1 000*10= 10 000 kg-m/s

say still car = 2 000 kg, velocity = 0 m/s then p = 2 000* 0 = 0 kg-m/s

total momentum prior to collision = 10 000 + 0 = 10 000 kg-m/s

momentum after collision = 10 000 kg-m/s

mass now = 1 000 kg+2 000 kg = 3 000 kg

10 000 = 3 000 kg* velocity m/s

10 000/3 000 = velocity

3.33 m/s = velocity after collision

an impulse is a force applied over time , momentum is exclusive of external forces and a perfect collision is implied
