the difference is thatcovelent bonds share electrons, thus creating bonds, the only reason they share electrons so that they can get full outer shells. Ionic bonds like....They bond between two different things, like a non metal, and a metal

What type of bond is magnesium sulfate?

If it's a non-metal and non-metal, it is a colvalent bond. If it's metal and non-metal or metal and metal, then it is ionic. Magnesium Sulfate (MgSO4 / Magnesium + Sulfate) is IONICbecause it is a metal and non-metal but it has a convalent bond in it, which is SO4 (Sulfur + Oxygen).

How does bonding work in chemistry?

There are many types of chemical bonds. An ionic bond is a chemical bond in which an electron is transfered from one atom to another. The atoms are then held together by opposite elctric charges. A colvalent bond in a chemical bond in which an electron is shared between two atoms. Also reference van der waals forces and hydrogen bonding.

What bond occurs due to an attraction between opposite charges?

Between oppositely charged ions the bond is called an ionic bond. Cations (positive ions) and Anions (negative ions) attract together like a magnet and create one of the strongest bonds in chemistry (ionic bond)
