Answer:

C. involve the attraction of opposite charges

Explanation:

Ionic bonding involves the attraction between oppositely charged ions, as in Na⁺ Cl⁻.

Covalent bonding involves the attraction between negatively charged electrons and positivey charged nuclei, as in a C-H bond.

A is wrong. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.

B is wrong. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.

D is wrong. Ionic bonds are usually stronger than covalent bonds.
