Solution
The correct option is A the ionic bond is non-directional
Ionic bond is Electrostatic. It is non directional, so Ionic compounds does not show the property of Space Isomerism.
Ionic compounds are non directional and due to which they do not show space isomerism. That is electrostatic force of attraction act in all directions and have no directional property.
