When one atom forms cation by losing electron and other forms anion by accepting that electron then bond form between them is ______?
Answer: Ionic bond
Explanation
- When one atom loses an electron to form a cation and another atom gains that electron to form an anion, the resulting attraction between the oppositely charged ions is an ionic bond.
- This type of bond is typically formed between a metal and a nonmetal, and is characterized by a transfer of electrons rather than a sharing of electrons (as in covalent bonds).
