metals and non-metals
Because energetically, it is favoured over the elements existing as separate atoms.
No, NaCl is an ionic salt. Since, chlorine is highly electronegative and sodium is highly electropositive therefore, the bonding between them takes place by ionic bond.
if it occurs between non metal atoms. Covalent bonds can only occur between non metal atoms but Ionic bonds occur between metal and non metal atoms.
well she is in the plain with the wayne and you call

Ionic bonds are formed by electrostatic attraction.

Metallic bonding occurs within solid pieces of copper and between individual atoms of copper in such objects.

The electrostaic attraction between atoms (a metal and a nonmetal) occur in ionic compounds.

YES it does
Ionic bonding occurs between two metals or a non-metal and a metal. Covalent bonds occur between non-metals. An example of an ionic bond would be simple table salt NACL (sodium chloride) sodium being the "metal" and the clorine ion being the non-metal. The easiest way to distinguish between ionic and covalent bonding is to take a look at your periodic table. Atoms that form "ions" (this is where the name is derived) and carry an unstable valence electron level will form ionic compounds. These ions will be identified as either +N or -N numbers next to the atom. Covalent bonds almost always occur between atoms that do not form ions. Covalent bonds are typically much harder to break and form than ionic bonds. An example of a covalent bond would be CH4 (methane). Ionic bonds are said to have electrons transferred between the two materials whereas covalent bonds are said to "share" electrons. Hope this helps.
They are not similar bonds. In fact, they are nearly opposite. Covalent bonds can occur between any two atoms and the bond is sharing electrons. Ionic bonds occur between any two different atoms and the bond is electromagnetic.
ionic or covalent bond can occur
