Question

lons will... * 5 points neutral atom loss of electron(s) gain of electron(s) cation anion share electrons break apart into atoms transfer electrons absorb protons from other atoms

Explanation:

Ions are formed when a neutral atom either gains or loses electrons. Cations are formed by losing electrons and anions by gaining electrons. This process involves electron - transfer. Sharing electrons forms covalent bonds, not ions. Atoms do not break apart into atoms to form ions, and ions do not absorb protons from other atoms to form.

Answer:

C. Transfer electrons
