The statement that best describes the formation of an ionic compound is:
A) Electrons are transferred from a metal to a non-metal, and the resulting charged particles form a crystalline network.
B) Electrons are transferred from a non-metal to a metal, and the resulting charged particles form a crystalline network.
C) Electrons are shared between two atoms and discrete molecules are formed.
D) Electrons move freely among a network of nuclei in fixed positions.
E) Each atom achieves an octet using electrons provided from an external electrical supply.
