Solution

The correct option is A Metallic
Metallic bond is formed if atom looses one or more valence electrons to give positive metal ions.
Metallic bond is the force of attraction between positively charged metallic ion and negatively charged sea of delocalised electrons. Thus, positive ions are arranged to form a kernel in the sea of delocalised electrons.

Q. State the types of compounds formed by the transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another.

The atoms or ions with available low-energy orbitals can attract loosely bonded pair of electrons from other molecules. A higher amount of positive charge on the side atom or ion makes its orbitals even more attractive for the loosely bonded electron pairs. The molecules with loosely bonded pairs also have different polarizabilities. The higher size of surrounding molecules and lower size of atom offering low energy orbitals increases crowding and diminishes the tendency of bonding.
