The answer is K, potassium. This is because the electronegativity difference would be the greatest here, leading to the valence electron being almost completely stolen by the chlorine. There would be a strong positive-negative attraction, and the strongest ionic bond would form.

K (potassium). BTW: All of these elements DO form compounds with chlorine.
