For the chemical reaction between potassium and chlorine, describe the type of bonding and describe how such bonds could be formed between 19K39 and 17CL35?

Question

Include a diagram and if you are confused what 19K39 is, 19 is protons and 39 is the mass number. 

Answer 1

A ionic bond is created when any element from the left side of the periodic table with something from the right. An ionic bond is a transfer of electrons were a cation gives up an electron to become stable and a anion receives an electron and become more stable. So, chlorine is now negatively and potassium is positively charge.
