The type of bond between atoms of potassium and chloride in a crystal of potassium chloride
a. hydrogen bond
b. ionic bond
c. polar covalent bond
d. pure covalent bond
e. metallic bond

Sagot :

It's an ionic bond because potassium is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal so the potassium donates an electron to the chlorine and so the potassium becomes a positive ion and the chlorine becomes a negative chloride ion. Opposite ion charges attract so an ionic lattice is formed.
