Answer:

The correct answer is A. a positive and negative ion

Step-by-step explanation

Ionic Bond:

Ionic bond is formed when one atom donate electrons and become positive and other atom accept electrons and become negative. The such a bond formed between cations and anion is known as ionic bond.

  • Neutral atoms have no charges like positive and negative, so they cant form ionic bond.
  • Same charges always repel to each other, so there is no possibility of bond.
  • Two positive ions cant make ionic bond sue to similar charges.
  • Two negative ions cant make ionic bond sue to similar charges.
