the electropositive atom has a (slightly) positive change, and the electronegative atom has a (slightly) negative charge. Therefore, the opposite charges attract, which is an ionic bond. All bonds are on a scale between purely ionic and purely covalent (only seen in bonds between atoms of the same element), so the bond between the two atoms mentioned would be close to the ionic end of the scale as the difference in electronegativity would create a polar covalent bond - the greater the difference in electronegativity, the more ionic the bond.
an electropositive element gives electrons to electronegative elements and this complete transfer of electrons creates an ionic bond
No, NaCl is an ionic salt. Since, chlorine is highly electronegative and sodium is highly electropositive therefore, the bonding between them takes place by ionic bond.
The answer may depend on the context of the question. Bonds that are somewhere between covalent and ionic but are more ionic in nature are sometimes termed primarily ionic.
Ionic compounds are polar and stable by nature, which means that their relationship determines whether a compound is ionic or not.
Electrovalent or ionic since ammonium(NH4+)is electropositive and chlorine(CL-) is electronegative

A covalent bonding is a common type of bonding in which the electronegetivity is lees then 1.7 e and in ionic bonding there is interaction between electronegetive atoms which has large electronegatinity which is greater than 1.7e.
No, NaCl is an ionic salt. Since, chlorine is highly electronegative and sodium is highly electropositive therefore, the bonding between them takes place by ionic bond.
When a highly electronegative atom and an electropositive one are bonded together, an electron is transferred from the electropositive atom to the electronegative atom to form a cation and an anion, respectively. The cation, being a positively charged ion, is attracted to the negatively charged anion.
It is ionic
This is a ionic bond.
SHORT ANSWER: the difference in electronegativities between H and Alkali metals is high, so the bonds are more ionic.
The answer may depend on the context of the question. Bonds that are somewhere between covalent and ionic but are more ionic in nature are sometimes termed primarily ionic.
Ionic compounds are polar and stable by nature, which means that their relationship determines whether a compound is ionic or not.
Whenever an electropositive element (metal) reacts with an electronegative element (non metal) the transfer of electron takes place from metal to a non-metal forming ionic bond.
Electrovalent or ionic since ammonium(NH4+)is electropositive and chlorine(CL-) is electronegative
Li is highly electropositive and Cl is highly electronagetive. therefore an ionic bond is formed
