The answer is B. This is because Sodium has 1 valence electron and Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. All elements want 8 valence electrons so they may be stale, like the noble gases are. Hope this helps.
Unequal heating of the atmosphere
Ionic or electrovalent compounds support the theory of ionic bonding because they are compounds composed of charged particles formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.
Electrovalent compounds posses:
- High boiling and melting points.
- Form crystals.
<h3>What is ionic bonding?</h3>
This is the transfer of valence electrons from metals to non metals to form ionic compounds. It also refers to a chemical bond formed between two ions with opposite charges.

The mass of an element listed in the Periodic Table is the weighted average of all its naturally occurring isotopes.
Naturally occurring carbon is about
99 % carbon-12 (12.000 u) + 1 % carbon-13 (13.003 u).
That extra carbon-13 makes the <em>average atomic mass</em> greater than 12.000 u.
