How should you change this image to represent an ionic bond between sodium and fluorine?

B) Move one electron from fluorine to sodium.
C) Move one electron from sodium to fluorine.

This is kind of hard to show without the picture, but to make an ionic bond with Na and Fl you would have the sodium move an electron to the fluorine, so the answer is C!  This is because of the fact that sodium has an outer shell valance electron (so it's unstable) and the fluorine would accept that because it is missing an electron in the outer shell.  So this sharing would lead to the bond being created!

The answer is C) Move one electron from sodium to fluorine.
