Sample output:

Enter the total number of elements: 5
Enter the elements which to be sort: 2 5 0 9 1
After merge sorting elements are: 0 1 2 5 9

An ionic bond is formed in between the two atoms with the transfer of electrons from an atom to the other to become stable after pairing.

The atom which has low ionization energy will give some of its electrons to get stable electronic configuration .
