Atoms bond in several different ways to form molecules. Which changes result from an ionic bond between two atoms?

A.
One or more electrons from each atom are lost.

B.
Electrons will be transferred from the nucleus of one atom to another atom.

C.
One or more electrons will be transferred from the electron shell of one atom to another atom.

D.
Electrons from each atom are shared equally.



Answer :

C. Electrons move from the electron shell of 1 atom to the electron shell of another atom.

A is incorrect as 1 atom loses electrons while the other gains. B is incorrect as electrons are not stored in or transferred between nuclei. D is wrong as it is the definition of a covalent bond, not an ionic bond.
