The type of bond that holds the atoms together in iron is called metallic bonding. Metallic bonds are formed by the delocalization of electrons between metal atoms, creating a "sea" of electrons that holds the atoms together. This gives metals their unique properties, such as conductivity and malleability.
It is the electromagnetic force that holds atoms and molecules together. The protons are positively charged, and the electrons are negatively charged. A fundamental law of electrostatics is that opposite charges attract, as you know. And the protons huddled with the neutrons in the nucleus attract and hold the electrons around them. Further, the negatively charged electrons don't like each other, as you could have easily guessed, and they have to make up some special ways to get along in the electron cloud. This gives rise to the electrons arranging themselves in shells or energy levels. Extending that even further, we see that some atoms want to loan out or borrow electrons to set up conditions in the electron cloud where the electrons are "happy" with the arrangement. And this gives rise to chemical bonding, which is the loaning or borrowing of electrons in ionic bonding, or the sharing of electrons in covalent bonding. In the quantum mechanical universe of the atoms, it is electromagnetics that sets the conditions for structures, both of the atoms themselves, and the molecules they form.
Those types of atoms are known as ions. These bear no positive or negative charge as the total number of electrons is not equal to it's set number or protons which gives the ion a net charge. These ions can be created by both physical and chemical means.
the number and kinds of atoms in the compoundIn an ionic compound, the formula gives the ions and their ratios in the crystal lattice. In a molecular compound, the formula gives the numbers of atoms of each element in a molecule.
The electrons specifically the outermost electrons determines the chemical properties. These are often called the valence electrons. The radioactivity of a particular isotope is determined by the nuclear composition in terms of protons and neutrons.

When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
Atoms of the elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer energy shells. This gives the elements similar Chemical Propetries.

Atoms in compounds can be held together in a few ways, including both polar and non-polar covalent, ionic, coordinate, and a few others. These bonds are called INTRAMOLECULAR bonds, meaning that they are the bonds that hold individual atoms together in a compound, or molecule. ELECTRICAL FORCES HOLD ATOMS TOGETHER; ex. an atom's tendency to have a full valence shell. The atoms share their valence electrons, causing an electric attraction to occur between the atoms, forming what we call a chemical or atomic bond.Atoms and molecules (groups of atoms) attract via electromagnetic forces. Atoms consist of Electrons, Protons (which have positive and negative charge respectively) and Neutrons (which gives the atom mass).The movement of electrons within the atoms and molecules causes a charge. These charges are called electromagnetic forces. Two atoms or molecules which have opposite charges will attract each other and bond during a chemical reaction.

No. Ionic compounds are not made by sharing electrons. Those would be covalent compounds. Ionic compounds are made when one atom donates an electron(s), and the other atoms takes the electron(s).
As I understand it, since they have the same number of protons, they tend to attract the same number of electrons. All neutral atoms of the same elements will have the same number of electrons. This gives them similar chemical properties, since the chemical properties are, to a great extent, determined by the outermost electrons.
These are the electrons.
