Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ionic bonds occur when one atom loses electrons to become a positively charged ion and another atom gains electrons to become a negatively charged ion. In option C, Lithium (Li) loses an electron to become a positively charged ion and Fluorine (F) gains this electron to become a negatively charged ion, resulting in an ionic bond between Li and F. In options A, B, and D, there is no transfer of electrons from one atom to another, indicating covalent bonds, not ionic bonds.
