What types of elements combine with each other will usually result formation of ionic bonding? Give an example.
Usually, metals and non-metals would combine with each other to form an ionic bond.
For example: sodium fluoride

Elements with a low electronegativity combine with elements with a high negativity to form ionic bonding compounds.
An ionic bond is defined by a large difference in electronegativity. The difference in electronegativity causes the electron density to be centered much closer to one element than the other. This causes one element to have a "net" negative charge, while the other element has a "net" positive charge.
The only way to obtain a large difference in electronegativity is for one element ( usually an atom from the left side of the periodic table ) to have a low negativity while the other element ( usually a non metal from the right side of the periodic table) has a high electronegativity.

Elements from different groups on the periodic table, typically a metal and a non-metal, combine to form ionic bonds. An example is the combination of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) to form sodium chloride (NaCl), where sodium loses an electron to chlorine, resulting in the formation of ions with opposite charges that are held together by electrostatic forces.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
