Question

what results from the chemical reaction illustrated in this figure?

formation of a covalent bond

formation of an ionic bond

formation of a hydrogen bond

formation of an anion with a net change of +1 and a cation with a net charge of -1

Explanation:

In the figure, one atom donates an electron to another atom. Ionic bonds form when one atom transfers electrons to another, creating oppositely - charged ions that are attracted to each other. Covalent bonds involve sharing electrons, hydrogen bonds are a type of weak intermolecular force, and the charge description in the last option is incorrect as an anion has a negative charge and a cation has a positive charge.

Answer:

formation of an ionic bond
