How are ionic bonds formed? by the disintegration of one or more electrons by the sharing of one or more electrons between two atoms by the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to another by the disintegration of one or more protons

Respuesta :

formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ionic bond is defined as the bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

For example, atomic number of lithium is 3 with electronic distribution 2, 1 and atomic number of chlorine is 17 with electronic distribution 2, 8, 7.

Hence, lithium will donate its one valence electron to the chlorine atom in order to attain stability. Therefore, forming an ionic bond and the ionic compound formed is LiCl.

Thus, we can conclude that ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to another.
