Electrovalent Compounds Form bonds that are characterised by transfer of electrons from metallic atoms to non-metal licenses atoms during a chemical reaction.
The metallic atom after donating their valence electrons, become positively charged, while the non-metal license atoms becomes negatively charged after acquiring extra electrons.
A typical example of electrovalent compounds can be found between the association of Group 1(Alkali Metals) elements and the Group 7(Halogen Family) elements.
Answer: The type of compound involves the transfer of electrons is called the ionic compounds.
Explanation: ionic compounds are compounds in which one atom or molecule completely transfers an electron to another.
Ions that have gained an electron are negatively charged and they are called anions while ions that have lost an electron are positively charged and they are called cations.
