favouring ionic bond formation ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.

• Ionization energy: It is defined as the amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an isolated gaseous atom of an element. ...
• Electron affinity: It is defined as the amount of energy released when an electron is added to an isolated gaseous atom of an element. ...
• Lattice energy:
