While electrons are transferred in ionic bond and shared in covalent bond, in metallic bonds electrons may move freely and they are not bound to any particular proton. This is called the electron sea theory. The significance of this type of bonding is, metal becomes malleable (because the electrons can just shift place instead of breaking down the bond when metal is pressurized) and a good electricity conductor (because of the freely moved electrons).
No. A bond cannot be both covalent and ionic. A bond can be covalent, ionic or metallic. In covalent bonding electrons are shared, electrons are transferred in ionic bonding and electrons move about in a sea of electrons in metallic bonds.
Ionic bond
Covalent.
they share all of their valence electrons
Elemntal iron is a metal with metallic bonding. In its compounds the bonding can be ionic or covalent.

Gold is a metal and has metallic bond.
Covalent, Ionic and Metallic bond
The ionic bond is based on the electrostatic attraction; the covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons.In the metallic bonding the electrons can be considered as delocalized.
ICl3 is covalent N2O is covalent LiCl is ionic
Ionic and metallic substances both do not have covalent bonds!
Yes that is all it contains there for it to be ionic or metallic the bond would have to have a metal for ionic and more than 2 elements for metallic composed of metals
Silver does not form covalent bonds. In metallic form, it has a metallic bond, and in compounds, it forms ionic bonds.
