The bonds in BaO are best described as B) ionic
Explanation :
Ionic bonds are the bonds which are formed due to sharing of electrons, the valency of Barium is +2 that means it has extra 2 electrons in its valence shell, similarly the valency of oxygen is -2 which means its outer shell is devoid of 2 electrons.
Hence they both share the 2 electrons of barium thus forming an ionic bond in the compound BaO.
