What bond has one atom that gives electrons and one that takes electrons?

There are two main types of strong bonds in chemistry. The type of bond that you're referring to is called an ionic bond. This is as opposed to covalent bonds, which form due to the sharing of electrons between atoms.

What happens when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
This is the loaning (by one atom) and the borrowing (by another atom) of a valence electron or electrons that creates a chemical bond. This type of bond is the ionic bond where one atom loans (or gives up) and the other borrows (or takes) an electron or electrons. In the other bond type, the covalent bond, the two atoms involved share electrons.
What term is used to describe a bond formed when one atom gains electrons while the other atom loses electrons?
A type of bond in which one atom gains electrons and one atom loses electrons is an ionic bond.
When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom they form a bond that is considered to be?
ionic
Is electrons share unequally in ionic bond?
Yes, The electrons are unequally shared in an Ionic Bond. One atom has more electrons than the other atom. Every Atom has Electrons that are called Valence Electrons. These Valence Electrons are the electrons in the outer shell of the Bohr Model of the atom. There should be a stable number of Valence electrons (2 or 8) for an atom to be completely stable. To stabilize the valence electrons the atom bonds with other atoms. One type of bond is called ionic bond where one atom gives up a certain number of electrons to be stable and another atom gains all of those lost atoms.
What kind of chemical bond will be formed between atom a and atom b if atom a loses electrons and atom b gains these electrons?
An ionic bond will form. Covalent bond, however, is when the two atoms share electrons when they bond.

What bond gives or takes all electrons?
An ionic bond.
What term is used to describe a bond formed when one atom gains electrons while the other atom loses electrons?
A type of bond in which one atom gains electrons and one atom loses electrons is an ionic bond.
What bond forms when one atom with many electrons in its outermost orbital takes an electron from another atom which has few electrons in its outermost orbital?
ionic bond
When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom they form a bond that is considered to be?
ionic
Nonpolar?
A bond in which neither atom takes more than its share of electrons

Which atom has the weakest attraction for the electrons ina bond with an H atom?
An S atom has the weakest attraction for the electrons in a bond with an H atom.
What is formed when a atom gives up a electron?
When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
What is the name of the bond that takes place when the atom's electrons give or gain electrons?
Ionic bonding- the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. This results in ions, as the atoms which gain/lose electrons now have a charge.
What kind of bound forms when an atom gains or losses electrons?
When an atom gains or loses electrons and therefore becomes an ion, it takes on either a positive or negative charge (positive if it lost electrons, negative if it gained electrons) and can bond to ions of the opposite charge in an ionic bond.
