Quite often yes with metals. Not always though. With carbon it forms covalent bonds.

What type of bonds will the element chlorine form?
ionic and covalent
Do sodium and chlorine atom form a covalent bond?
No. Sodium can only form ionic bonds.
What is ionic bond formed?
Ionic bonds are chemical bonds by positive ionic charge(normally hydrogen , metals +) and negative ionic charge(chlorine ,sulphur etc ) that bind to form compounds.
Elements of what pairs form ionic bonds between them when combined-a.sodium and chlorine b.carbon and hydrogen c.chlorine and chlorine d.nitrogen and hydrogen?
Only sodium and chlorine will form ionic bond. the other pair given here will form covalent bond
Does Be only have 4 electrons shared in BeCl2?
No. Beryllium has only two valence electrons and forms ionic bonds with chlorine, not covalent bonds. Beryllium atoms form 2+ ions, and chlorine atoms form 1- ions in order to form the ionic compound beryllium chloride, BeCl2.
What type of bonds will the element chlorine form?
ionic and covalent
What is form ionic?
Ionic bonds are chemical bonds by positive ionic charge(normally hydrogen , metals +) and negative ionic charge(chlorine ,sulphur etc ) that bind to form compounds.
A chlorine atom reacts with a sodium atom to form sodium chloride, NaCl. A chlorine atom can also react with another chlorine atom to form a chlorine molecule, Cl2. Which statement BEST explains the behavior of chlorine in these two reactions?
A chlorine atom can form ionic bonds by accepting an electron and covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
What kinds of bonds occurs when an atom of sodium joins an atom of chlorine to form sodium chlorine?
Sodium chloride has ionic bonds.
Is chloride an ionic bond?
Chloride is an ion that can form ionic bonds. Elemental chlorine is covalently bonded.
Does oxygen and chlorine form an ionic bond?
No, Oxygen forms covalent bonds
Do sodium and chlorine atom form a covalent bond?
No. Sodium can only form ionic bonds.
How many common bonds does chlorine have?
Chlorine usually forms ionic bonds with metals and covalent bonds with nonmetals,but it also forms coordinate bonds in some cases ,in HCl chlorine may form hydrogen bonding.
What is ionic bond formed?
Ionic bonds are chemical bonds by positive ionic charge(normally hydrogen , metals +) and negative ionic charge(chlorine ,sulphur etc ) that bind to form compounds.
What bonds does calcium and chlorine have in common with hydrogen and nitrogen?
They do not have any bonds in common. Calcium and chlorine atoms form an ionic bond and hydrogen and nitrogen form a polar covalent bond.
Does sodium form a covalent transferring or ionic transferring or ionic sharing bond with chlorine?
Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Ions in covalent bonds share electrons. Ionic bonds are between a non-metal and a metal and the ions transfer electrons. Sodium (Na) is a metal and chlorine (Cl) is a non-metal. Therefore, sodium and chlorine form an ionic bond, in which ions transfer electrons.
Elements of what pairs form ionic bonds between them when combined-a.sodium and chlorine b.carbon and hydrogen c.chlorine and chlorine d.nitrogen and hydrogen?
Only sodium and chlorine will form ionic bond. the other pair given here will form covalent bond
