An ionic bond between the ions (formed from the atoms).
ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of electrons
Electrons are both gained and lost. Electrons are both gained and lost.
of course, ions are formed by loosing (cations) or gaining (anions) electrons. anions have more electrons than the atom from which it is formed.
Atoms that carry an electrical charge because they gained or lost electrons are called ions. An atom that has lost electrons will be positively charged, and it is called cation. On the other hand, an atom that has gained electrons will be negatively charged, and it is called anion.
Usually three will be lost.
Ionic bonds are formed between positively charged atoms (lost electrons) and negatively charged atoms (gained electrons).

Electrons are the ones gained or lost in a chemical reaction. Electrons are gained in oxidation and lost through the chemical reaction known as reduction.
Atoms that carry an electrical charge because they gained or lost electrons are called ions. An atom that has lost electrons will be positively charged, and it is called cation. On the other hand, an atom that has gained electrons will be negatively charged, and it is called anion.
An ionic bond is formed when electrons have been lost by one atom (to become a positively charged ion) and gained by another atom (to become a negatively charged ion), resulting in an attraction between the oppositely charged ions.
Usually three will be lost.
They are gained.
Cations are positive, when loosing electrons (negative) they'll become MORE positive. Example: Fe2+ --> e- + Fe3+
