For example, iron plus oxygen can become ferric oxide. Both elements change their names. The change is used to indicate the kind of bonding process that is taking place. When iron and oxygen become ferric oxide, the iron has lost electrons and the oxygen has gained the electrons that iron lost. <span>

The protons and electrons of an atom are attracted to each other. They both carry an electrical charge. Protons have a positive charge (+) and electrons have a negative charge (-). The positive charge of the protons is equal to the negative charge of the electrons.
Answer:
D. it's a displacement reaction
If every oxygen ion is combined with an aluminium ion has a charge of -2,the charge of each aluminum ion would be -3.
Uncharged Aluminum atom must need to lose it's electrons,in order to form the bond with oxygen which has vacant orbitals
ion
atom that has a positive or negative charge because it lost or gained one or more electrons
chemical bond
the attractive force that holds atoms or ions together
ionic bond
a chemical bond in which one atom loses an electron and the other atom gains electrons to form ions
chemical formula
a combination of chemical symbols and numbers to represent a substance
covalent bond
bond formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms
