See, e.g., Fuller v. Norton, 86 F.3d 1016 (10th Cir. 1996) (state regulation of non-fully insured MEWA not in conflict with Title I of ERISA).
Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond , type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom. The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). A brief treatment of ionic bonds follows.
Ionic bonding, a type of chemical bonding, generally happens between metal and non-metal elements. There is usually the transfer of electrons between the two elements. The element which losses the electron becomes positively charged, and the one which gains the electrons becomes negatively charged.
