Question

between which types of elements do ionic bonds occur, and how do electrons act within the bond? (1 point) metals and metals, electrons freely moving nonmetals and metals, electrons shared nonmetals and nonmetals, electrons shared metals and nonmetals, electrons transferred

Explanation:

Ionic bonds form between elements with large differences in electronegativity. Metals have low electronegativity and tend to lose electrons, while nonmetals have high electronegativity and tend to gain electrons. This electron transfer creates charged ions that attract to form the bond. Electrons are shared in covalent bonds (between nonmetals), and freely moving electrons describe metallic bonds (between metals).

Answer:

metals and nonmetals, electrons transferred
