which term best describes all atoms in ionic bonnds ? A)stable B)unstable C)positively charged D)negatively charged

Ionic compound : Ionic compounds are the compounds which are made up of an ions that are cations and an anions. The cation are positively charged and an anions are negatively charged.

The ionic bonds are stable when cation and an anions both approaches to each other by electrostatic force, they form ionic bonding.

Therefore, the correct option is A) Stable.

Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

Ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electrons from one element to another element. The element which donates the electrons is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element.

After loosing electrons the electropositive element forms cation (positively charge species) and after gaining these electrons, the electronegative element forms anions (negatively charges species)

Charged species are considered as unstable species and hence they combine to form an ionic bond which is stable in nature.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option A.
