The ionic bond, as its name suggests, is most easily characterized by the formation of charged ions. No other bonding involves the formation of charged ions, which then in turn attract the opposite charged other to form an ionic compound.

Yes, they form an ionic bond.
Is BaF2 a ionic or covalent bond?
Barium fluoride is a compound, not a bond. It has ionic bonding.
What best describes how an ionic bond forms?
A metal and nonmetal react to form an ionic bond. This bond is the result of the nonmetal "desiring" electrons to fill out its valence, and a metal "desiring" to give up its electrons so that it can fill out its valence. This forms a tight bond, because the opposite charges bind them together.
Which term describes the units that make up substances formed by ionic bond?
ions
