If you're asking how metals and non-metals bond, they do so via ionic bonding. The structure of such chemicals is usually crystalline. The metal usually carries a positive ionic charge (loses 1 or more electrons) while the non-metal usually carries a negative ionic charge (gains 1 or more electrons). The most common example would be Table salt; Sodium Chloride, NaCl.
