✔️Ionic bonds form between metal atoms and nonmetal atoms.

✔️The less electronegative atoms transfers one or more electrons to the more electronegative atom

✔️The metal atom forms a cation and the nonmetal atom forms an anion.

✔️The attraction between ions with an opposite charge forms an ionic bond.

Explanation:

Ionic bond refers to the bond formation which occurs when there is complete and permanent transfer of electrons from one metal atom to another non-metal atom. The metals, which are electropositive (less electronegative) loose their electrons while the non-metals, which are less electropositive (more electronegative) gain the electrons.

When the metal atom looses electrons, they form cations(become positively charged) while non-metal atom forms anions (become negatively charged). When the opposite charges attract each other, they form ionic bond.
