When electrons are shared in two or more different atoms, it is known as the scientific term, Convalent Bonding. When electrons and given and taken in, otherwise known as tranferring electrons from one atom or another, is called Ionic Bonding.
it is called IONIC compound
People can use electronegativity and energy to discuss theories of how and why atoms form bonds. Atoms will only form bonds if it is a lower energy state for them to be in. Bonds are formed by electron sharing.
Covalent bonds
Bonds are formed by the Sharing of electrons. If you wanted a negative bond, then you'd share negative electrons. For example... Hydrogen and Fluorine Hydrogen has one electron shown by it's configuration. 1s1 Notice that hydrogen's sole electron is also it's valence electron and located in the first energy level. Florine has seven electrons shown by it's configuration 1s22s22p5. it's all in the electron sharing.

They achieve the electron configuration of a noble gas.
Covalent bonds are formed between atoms by sharing their valence shell electrons. In most cases non metals form covalent bonds. Exceptions exist including gaseous sodium Na2 and diethylzinc (C2H5)2Zn.
A chlorine atom can form ionic bonds by accepting an electron and covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
Two oxygen atoms combine to form a molecule by sharing electrons
The valence electron are involved in the sharing of electrons with the other atoms to form ionic bonds.
People can use electronegativity and energy to discuss theories of how and why atoms form bonds. Atoms will only form bonds if it is a lower energy state for them to be in. Bonds are formed by electron sharing.
Carbon can form 4 covalent bonds as in methane. A covalent bond is formed by sharing of 2 electrons. as in methane 4 electron from carbon forms abond with 4hydrogen atom which donates 4 electron to form 4 covalent bonds
Atoms form bonds by sharing electrons or gaining or losing electrons to other atoms.For example:Carbon forms bonds by sharing four electrons with other atoms.Sodium forms bonds by losing an electron to another atom - that makes sodium positive and the atom such as chlorine that gains the electron positive - so a bond is formed.Chemically joined means that bonds are formed between atoms.
Covalent bonds
Electron
Fluorine gains an electron. Fluorine is very reactive and will form bonds.
