This type of interaction form the covalent bond, for example between nonmetals.
The other common type of bond is ionic.

What happens to electrons when elements combine?
The electrons get shared between the two elements, from the covalent bonds.
What is octet-rule violation?
It what happens when elements don't obey the octect rule, i.e. elements that have more than eight electrons in their outermost shell. It what happens when elements don't obey the octect rule, i.e. elements that have more than eight electrons in their outermost shell.
When metals react with other elements what happens to the valence electrons of the the atoms?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
What happens to the electrons in a covalent?
The pairs of electrons are shared between atoms.
When metal react with other elements what happens to the valence electrons of the metal atom?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
When metals react to the other elements what happens to the valence electrons of the metal Atoms?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
When metals react with other elements what's happens to the valence electrons of the metal atoms?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
What happens when it loses electrons?
all elements want to have a full valence shell and when an atom loses electrons it is said to become a cation.
What happens in a polar covalent bond?
The electrons between the two elements aren't shared equally and slightly polarizes both sides, or gives it a positive or negative charge.
What happens when ionic bonding occurs between two atoms?
I think you mean, 'What happens when ionic bonding occurs between two elements' In ionic bonding two or more elements share electrons from their outter shells, usually resulting in full, stable outter shells like the noble gases.
When metals react with other elements what happens to the valence of the metal atoms?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
What happens in a single covalent bond?
Two electrons are shared between two atoms, in fact, they are the bonding electrons.
