Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A crystalline solid will be electrically neutral if atoms present in the molecule have opposite charges.

For example, in a NaCl molecule sodium has +1 charge and chlorine has -1 charge. Therefore, this molecule is neutral due to the presence of same number of opposite charges.

Thus, we can conclude that a crystalline solid that is electrically neutral MOST likely has ionic bonds.
