C.) Ionic bond is formed between that...
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding between two non-metals, whereas ionic bonding is a bond between a metal and a non-metal.
Answer:- C. H
Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.
As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.
The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.
In 
, the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in 
is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in 
is zero and in 
the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in 
is 0.
From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.
Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.
Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.
So, the right choice is C.H

Answer:
B- Sodium loses an electron.
D- Fluorine gains an electron.
Sodium is oxidized.
Explanation:
The reaction equation is given as:
Na + F → NaF
In this reaction, Na is the reducing agent. It loses an electron and then becomes oxidized. By so doing, Na becomes isoelectronic with Neon.
Fluorine gains the electron and then becomes reduced. This makes fluorine also isoelectronic with Neon.
This separation of charges on the two species leads to an electrostatic attraction which forms the ionic bonds.
