Ionic bond is a type of chemical bond that refers to the bonding of <span>oppositely charged ions (anions and cations) because of attraction and the </span>transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. Cation is the metal that loses electrons and become a positively charged cation, and anions are the nonmetal that accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.
According this explanation, an ionic bond is:
B. the force that holds the valence electrons to the atom

What term is used when heat is transferred from one piece of matter to another until they are of equal temperature?​
IgorC [24]

thermal contact

When heat flows from one object or substance to another it is in contact with, the objects or substances are said to be in thermal contact. The state where objects in thermal contact with each other reach the same temperature, no heat flows between them.

Which of these is an isoelectronic series? question 7 options: 1) na+, k+, rb+, cs+ 2) k+, ca2+, ar, s2– 3) na+, mg2+, s2–, cl–
-BARSIC- [3]
An isoelectronic series is where all of the ions listed have the same number of electrons in their atoms. When an atom has net charge of zero or neutral, it has equal number of protons and electrons. Hence, it means that the atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electrons. If these atoms become ions, they gain a net charge of + or -. Positive ions are cations. This means that they readily GIVE UP electrons, whereas negative ions (anions) readily ACCEPT electrons. So, to know which of these are isoelectronic, let's establish first the number of electron in a neutral atom from the periodic table:

Na=11; K=19; Rb=37; Cs = 55; Ca=20; S=16; Mg=12; Li=3; Be=4; B=5; C=6, Ar = 18

A. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
     K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
     Rb⁺: 37-1 = 36 electrons

B. K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
    Ca²⁺: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons
    Ar:  18 electrons
    S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

C. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
    Mg²⁺: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons
     S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

D. Li=3 electrons
    Be=4 electrons
    B=5 electrons
    C=6 electrons

The answer is letter B.
