An atom of lithium (Li) forms an ionic bond with an atom of chlorine (Cl) to form lithium chloride. How are the valence electrons of these atoms rearranged to form this bond? A few valence electrons are shared between the atoms.
Many valence electrons are shared between the atoms.
Electrons are transferred from the chlorine atom to the lithium atom.
