Which of these pairs would form an ionic bond? k and br c and h h and o cu and cu?

K and Br

Explanation: Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons between metals and non metals.

Electronic configuration of potassium:

Potassium atom will loose one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form potassium cation with +1 charge.

Electronic configuration of bromine:

Bromine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form bromide ion with -1 charge.

In potassium bromide ,one electron from potassium metal gets transferred to bromine atom.

just did the assignment and the answer was #1 +2 n

the answer is a! (2.9 x 10^-18 j) hope i could someone. : )
