In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in one atom gaining electrons (anion) and the other atom losing electrons (cation). In a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms, allowing them to complete their valence shells.
When a bond is formed by atoms by sharing the electrons, the bond is called a covalent bond.
In a covalent bond, the electrons used are typically the valence electrons of the atoms involved. These are the outermost electrons. Each atom contributes one or more valence electrons to form a shared pair in the bond.
When atoms share electrons, they form a chemical bond, or covalent bond.

When a bond is formed by atoms by sharing the electrons, the bond is called a covalent bond.
In metallic bonding, the valence electrons freely 'jump' from atom to atom, forming kind of an electron sea.

A nonpolar covalent bond involves an even sharing of electrons.
When electrons are transferred, ionic bond is formed. It is a stronger bond.
