Ionic bonds form between nonmetals and metals.

The reason ionic bonds are formed is because nonmetals and metals usually have high electronegativities, which essentially means that metals pull on nonmetals' electrons.
When a metal takes an electron from a nonmetal, the metal becomes negatively charged and the nonmetal becomes positively charged. Because opposite charges attract, the two atoms will stick together, thus forming an ionic bond

Answer:

Following are the responses to this question:

Explanation:

They can measure the spontaneity of the reaction with the form, $\Delta G =\Delta H - T \Delta S$ Substituting the values of $\Delta H, T,\ and \ \Delta S$ in the above expression information mostly on the playfulness of the reaction would be given to us from the expression above. This reaction is spontaneous if the price of $\Delta G$ is negative, and if it is positive the response is not random. At equilibrium, the values of $\Delta G, \Delta H, \ and \ \Delta S$ are 0.
