Ionic bond is a type of chemical bond that occurs when a metal atom definitively gives up one or more electrons to a nonmetal or hydrogen atom.

B-Cl both are nonmetal

H-Cl here we have hydrogen and a nonmetal

Ba-Br here we have a metal and a nonmetal (Ba is a metal and Br is a nonmetal)

C-N here we have 2 nonmetals

S-O here we have 2 nonmetals

You can know which one is a metal or a nonmetal looking into periodic table.

Answer: Ba-Br
