Ionic bonds are usually formed by combination of elements with _________.

A

High ionisation potential and low electron affinity

B

Low ionisation potential and high electron affinity

C

High ionisation potential and high electron affinity

D

Low ionisation potential and low electron affinity

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
A metal with low ionization potential will loose electrons easily and a non-metal with high electron affinity can gain electrons easily. So these atoms can form an ionic bond.
