The answer which is the best description of how electrons are transferred in an ionic bond is - A metal atom loses electrons and a nonmetal atom gains electrons. W<span>hile forming an ionic bond the metal atom loses electrons to gain a positive charge whereas the non-metal atom gains these electrons and gets a negative charge and then these charges attract and they bond together forming the ionic bond.</span>

Explanation:
If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.
This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.
However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.
The amount in grams of Al₂O₃ produced is approximately 6.80 g.
Aluminium reacts completely with oxygen(air) to produce Al₂O₃. The reaction can be represented with a chemical equation as follows:
AL + O₂ → Al₂O₃
Let's balance it
4AL + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃
4 moles of Aluminium reacts with 3 moles of Oxygen molecules to produce 2 moles of Aluminium oxide. Therefore,
Since, aluminium reacts completely, it is the limiting reagent in the reaction. Therefore,
Atomic mass of AL = 27 g
Molar mass of Al₂O₃ = 101.96 g/mol
4(27 g) of AL gives 2(101.96 g) of Al₂O₃
3.6 g of AL will give ?
cross multiply
mass of Al₂O₃ produced = 3.6 × 203.92 / 108 = 734.112 / 108 = 6.797
mass of Al₂O₃ produced = 6.80 g.
