Ionic bonds are most likely to occur when the number of valence electrons is close to what numbers?

The name of the compound is sodium fluoride with formula NaF.

Explanation: Sodium is a group 1 element with atomic number 1. It has 11 electrons. It is soft reactive metal. It has 1 valence electron.

Fluorine is a group 7 element, a hologen with 7 valence electron. It is a most reactive non metal.

When sodium react with fluorine, ionic bond is formed in the resulting compound sodium fluoride.

One sodium and fluorine each totaling 2 atoms are enough to make the bond.

As the bond is formed, both atoms have octet structure. That is they each have 8 electrons on their outermost shells.

The positive charge on sodium indicates that sodium had lost 1 electron to fluorine atom.

The negative charge on fluorine ion indicates that fluorine atom had gained 1 electron from sodium atom to form negative ion.

The name of the compound is sodium fluoride with formula NaF.
