Answer:

Ok:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium gives fluorine an electron. This is in part due to electronegativity differences because sodium likes to lose an electron and fluorine likes to gain. As a result, sodium and become positively charged and fluorine negatively charged. This will for electrostatic attraction and the sodium and fluorine will form a bond. This bond is called an ionic bond.
