Answer:

metals, non-metals

Step-by-step explanation:

Ionic bonding results from electron transfer. To form this bond type, metals lose electrons and becomes positive ions. While non-metals gain electrons to become negatively charged.

  • Ionic bond forms between a very less electronegative substance and one with with a higher one.
  • The two ions formed attracts one another with an electrostatic force.
  • This electrostatic force is the ionic bonding that holds the atoms together.
