An ionic bond is formed by a metal and a nonmetal.  The metal comes first then the nonmetal.  You switch the charges, example Magnesium has a charge of 2 and nitrogen has a charge of -3  You would name the metal first, Mg then put the charge of nitrogen next to it as a subscript then list nitrogen but you always change the ending of a nonmetal in an ionic compound to -ide so it would be nitride, but put N then the charge of Magnesium as a subscript next to it.  It should then look like this for Magnesium Nitride Mg₃N₂
Hope this helps!!

Answer:

It is made of atoms that are covalently bonded together.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds made up of ions. These ions are atoms that gain or lose electrons, giving them a net positive or negative charge. Metals tend to lose electrons, so they become cations and have a net positive charge. Nonmetals tend to gain electrons, forming anions that have a net negative charge.
