4. In KCl, how are the valence electrons distributed?
O A. The electrons are shared between many K and Cl ions, creating a "sea of electrons."
B. The electrons are transferred from K to CI.
O c. The electrons are equally shared between K and Cl, forming a covalent bond.
D. The electrons are unequally shared between K and Cl, forming a polar covalent bond.
