Nonionic refers to a substance that does not contain charged particles or ions. Its antonyms are ionic or electrovalent, which describe substances that have an electric charge. Ionic substances are formed when there is a transfer of electrons from one atom to another, creating oppositely charged ions that attract each other. Nonionic substances, on the other hand, do not participate in chemical reactions or form ions when dissolved in water. Other antonyms for nonionic could include polar or hydrophilic, which are substances that have a partial or full electric charge and can dissolve or mix with water. Nonpolar or hydrophobic substances would also be antonyms, as they repel water and do not have any electric charge.
