Solution

$Electrovalent bond$
the bond that is formed by the electrons which are present in the S block of the periodic table is an electrovalent bond. The electrovalent bond is present because it can easily lose electrons. As a result of this, the can donate electron resulting in the formation of electrovalent bonds.
