Atoms involved in covalent bonding are just called atoms. Molecules are composed of covalently bonded atoms.
halogens have high electron affinity, form ions easily, hence are involved in ionic bonding with suitable cations.
The bonding between sodium cations and hydroxide anions in sodium hydroxide is ionic, but the bonding between oxygen and hydrogen atoms within the hydroxide anion is polar covalent,
The hydroxide anions in calcium hydroxide have covalent bonding between oxygen and hydrogen atoms, and these anions are ionically bonded to calcium cations to form the complete compound.
Pure ammonia does not contain coordinate covalent bonds; it is bonded by three ordinary single covalent bonds between nitrogen and hydrogen. However, this bonding leaves the nitrogen atom with an unbound pair of electrons, which can form a coordinate covalent bond in the presence of a suitable electrophilic material, such as transition metal cations in aqueous solution. Iron, cobalt, and nickel cations are particularly susceptible to forming such bonds.
Yes anions and cations share electrons. Anions gain electrons and cations loose electrons.
If you're talking about covalent bonding, they're just called atoms, and if you're talking about ionic bonding, they're called ions. Positively charged ions are called cations, and negatively charged ions are called anions.

Potassium sulfate contains both covalent and ionic bonding. Potassium cations are bonded ionically to the polyatomic sulfate anions, and these anions are internally bonded covalently.

Compounds with covalent bonds form molecules not ions Compounds consisting of non-metals bonded to nonmetals do not form ions
noble gases have larger radius than cations.
Yes anions and cations share electrons. Anions gain electrons and cations loose electrons.
It is both ionic and covalent since there is metal to metal bonding as well as metal to non-metal bonding in the compound.
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
