Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chemical bonds are defined as the bonds which are formed by the combination of atoms or ions.

Ionic bonds are defined as the bonds which are formed by the complete transfer of electrons from cation (positively charged ions) to anion (negatively charged ions). The ions with opposite charge attracts each other

For Example: NaCl,
BaSO_4 etc.

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms.

For Example: HCl,
CH_4 etc.
