which statement describes the valence electrons in ionic bonds?\no they are shared equally between two…

Brief Explanations:

In ionic bonds, one atom donates valence - electrons to another atom. This results in the formation of ions (cation and anion) which are held together by electrostatic forces. Covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons (equally in non - polar covalent and unequally in polar covalent), and metallic bonds involve a sea of electrons shared among many atoms.

Answer:

They are transferred from one atom to another.
