bonding electrons are when the electron have the same number and the connect,like valence electrons. Non-bonding electrons are only possible when an atom is unstable, no more than 2 electrons or if the atom is an isotope. bonding electron pairs occur in a covalent bond between two atoms. they include one electron from each atom in the covalent bond. non-bonding pairs do not take part in bonding. they are the left over electrons in the outter shell of the atom.
