This is called a redox reaction, where one molecule gains electrons and one molecule loses electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons and oxidation the gain of electrons. It can be remembered as OILRIG (Oxidation Is Loss Reduction Is Gain).
A reduction-oxidation (Redox) Reaction. A combination of reduced reaction and oxidized reactions.
Electrons
When electrons are transferred between two atoms a covalent bond is formed is known as an ionic bond.
An ionic bond forms when electrons are transferred between atoms.
