Answer: option b. false.


Justification.


1) Cations are ions with positive charge.


2) The law of charges state that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.


3) Then, two cations (positive ions) will repel and will not bond together to form a compound.


4) A ionic compound is formed between a cation (positive ion) and an an anion (negative ions).
