an ionic bond forms
Electrons are shared in a type of bond known as covalent. This type of bond is also considered a chemical bond.
A chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons is a covalent bond. A nonpolar covalent bond is the type of bond that involves the most sharing.
Covalent bond
The bond is covalent. If the bond is made by transferring electrons then it is an ionic bond, but if they are sharing the it is covalent.
covalent bond
Ionic bonds are formed between positively charged atoms (lost electrons) and negatively charged atoms (gained electrons).
an ionic bond forms
Ionic bonds are formed when electrons are gained or lost. This is the complete transfer of electrons between the atoms. For e.g sodium(Na) releases its one electron which is transfered to the deserving chlorine atom(Cl). So, chlorine becomes negatively charged and the sodium atom becomes a positive ion(Na+). This is the case when electrons are completely transfered from sodium to chlorine and ionic bond is formed i.e NaCl. Moreover, when electrons are shared between atoms covalent bonds may form.
ions. (atoms that have lost or gained electrons)
Electrons are shared in a type of bond known as covalent. This type of bond is also considered a chemical bond.
Neutrons & Electrons. Protons cannot be transferred, lost or gained.

This is the covalent bond.
An ion is certain type of atom. Ions are atoms that have lost or gained electrons (often to have 8 valence electrons in the s and p orbitals).
