Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It tends to lose or gain electron in order to get neutral and become stable. An ionic bond is formed due to transfer of electron from anion to cation. K⁺ is positively charged -it is a cation. ... when K⁺ and I⁻ bond, I⁻ loses its electron to K⁺ and ionic bond is created.
