What conditions favor the formation of ionic compounds from elements? a) both atoms must be nonmetals b) a metal and a nonmetal c) both atoms must be metals d) a metal atom and a noble gas atom

A  metal  and  non  metal  favor  the  formation  of  ionic  compounds  from  element.  ionic  compounds  are  formed  when  between  metal  and  non  metal  because  metal  has  ability  to  loss  electrons   and  net  positive  charge  ion  to  form  cation while  non  metal  has  ability  to  gain   electrons  .form  anion  and  net  negative   charge  ion.
