In sodium metal the atoms are held together by metallic bonds.
A metallic bond is what holds together pure sodium.
Ionic bond .
Covalent bond

ionic bonds :)
because the atoms are larger and cannot be held together as strongly by the mobile electrons.
When sodium and chloride join together an electron from sodium is transferred to the chloride to form a bond. This bond is called an ionic bond.
Ionic bonding
The polar covalent bond between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms holds it together.
chemical bond holds together the atoms in a substance
When sodium atoms and chlorine atoms interact, the sodium atoms are converted to positively charged cations and the chlorine atoms are converted to negatively charged anions. The cations and anions to which the atoms have been converted are held together by mutual electrostatic charge attractions.
Covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms and it is this force of attraction that holds the atoms in covalent bond together.

A Chemical Bond
the force of attraction that holds atoms together is a chemical bond
bond
holds two atoms together
It is the electromagnetic force as it is expressed in what is called an ionic chemical bond that holds individual molecules of table salt (NaCl) together.
