Explain the process of ionic bond formation between K (potassium, a metal) and Br (bromine, a nonmetal).
I

Metals transfers electrons to nonmetals. Potassium -K transfers one electron to bromine- Br because K is located in group 1A on periodic table. Br has seven electrons and located group 7A. Both K and Br stable by gaining and losing one electron. The transfer of electrons makes metals to become + positive ions and nonmetal to become - negative ions. An ionic bond is formed, the charges attract each other.

Explanation: Metals donate, or transfer, electrons to the nonmetal.

The transfer of electrons creates a positive ion and a negative ion.

An ionic bond is formed when the charges attract each other.

the answer is b & c i believe : )
