Which of the following compounds would be expected to have the strongest ionic bonds? the compound that has the largest ions with the greatest charge the compound that has the largest ions with the least charge the compound that has the smallest ions with the greatest charge the compound that has the smallest ions with the least charge

Compound that has the smallest ions with the greatest charge.

Explanation: Ionic compounds are formed by the combination of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions held together by electrostatic forces.

According to Coulombic:

where and are the charges and r is the distance between the two charges

As force is directly proportional to charges and inversely proportional to distance between charges, strongest forces will be there when charges are greatest and sizes are small.

emerald ash borer

the emerald ash borer is a green buprestid or jewel beetle native to north-eastern asia that feeds on ash species. females lay eggs in bark crevices on ash trees, and larvae feed underneath the bark of ash trees to emerge as adults in one to two years. hope this !
