Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Ionic bonds are the attraction between
A
positive nuclei and shared electrons
B
positive metal ions and delocalised electrons
C
positive and negative ions
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Ionic bonds form between two or more atoms by the transfer of one or more electrons between atoms. Electron transfer produces negative ions called anions and positive ions called cations. These ions attract each other.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ionic bonding is the attraction between positively-and negatively-charged ions. These oppositely charged ions attract each other to form ionic networks (or lattices).

Detailed explanation-3: -Ionic bond involves electrostatic force of attraction between the positive and negative ions which is stronger than the force of attraction between atoms in a covalent bond.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ionic bonds result from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, which form when valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

Detailed explanation-5: -A positive ion will be attracted to any negative ion. TRUE: any positively charged object will be attracted to any negatively charged object. It does not matter how the objects acquired the charge, the attraction only depends on the amount of charge, and the distance between the two charged objects.
