covalent - which means "sharing of valence electrons"
ionic compounds are formed by the complete transfer of electrons. If the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is above 1.7, then ionic bond is formed between the two atoms.
Atoms covalently bond to share electrons most done between metals and non metals
the atoms share electrons
False
An atom that has lost or gained electrons is known generally as an ion. More specifically, an atom that has lost electrons becomes a cation. It has a positive charge. An atom that has gained electrons becomes an anion. An anion has a negative charge.
There are two different types of bonds when atoms join together. Covalent bonds are formed when atoms "share" electrons. Ionic bonds are formed when an atom gives up its electrons to another to form a bond.

Covalent
ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms
Bonds are formed on sharing electrons. Covalent bonds are formed.
A covalent bond is formed when electrons are transferred from atom to atom.

the atoms share electrons
Covalent bonds and dative (coordinate) bonds are formed are formed by sharing electrons between the bonding atoms.
A covalent (polar or non-polar) bond is formed
share electrons
False
