Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
what is An ionic bond?
A
When sodium loses one electron and chlorine gains one electron.
B
The electric forces between oppositely charged electrons and protons hold atoms and molecules together
C
is the force of attraction between the opposite charges of the ions in an ionic compound.
D
the force that holds atoms together in a compound.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.

Detailed explanation-2: -In an ionic bond, the two oppositely charged ions are held together by strong electrostatic force of attraction.

Detailed explanation-3: -The ionic bond is the electrostatic force of attraction between a positively charged metal ion and a negatively charged non-metal ion. Metals form positive ions because they lose electrons to become stable.

Detailed explanation-4: -: a chemical bond formed between oppositely charged species because of their mutual electrostatic attraction.
