An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.
In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.
Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻
Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium

Answer:
Iron is the element that is produced at the limit of the reaction.
Explanation:
In nuclear fusion 2 lighter nuclei are combined together into a single nucleus releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the process.
Up to fusion of iron the reaction of fusion is exothermic but when iron atom pops out the reaction becomes endothermic and it requires very high amount of energy to fuse iron atoms which is not available thus marking an end to the fusion reaction.
