Question

An ionic bond can be formed between

Answer 1

Answer:

Two unlike charged ions.

Explanation:

The positive charge on one and the negative on the other helps form the ionic bond.

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. In these types of bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion..

Ionic bonding is observed because metals have few electrons in their outer-most orbitals. By losing those electrons, these metals can achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule.
