No,a covalent bond is formed when 2 atoms share electrons.

On the other hand, an ionic bond on the other hand occurs when one atom takes/steals an electron from another atom and the resulting polarity (the differences in charges) between the two atoms causes them to attract. The atoms will have different charges since the atom that took an electron will be more negative and the atom that gave an electron will be more positive.

What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?

When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.


What chemical bond do electrons share among many atoms?

electrons share ionic bond between atoms. Covalent bond may also be present.


Can a covalent bond from when electrons are transferred between 2 atoms?

No, It would be an ionic bond. For Covalent is the sharing of atoms, ionic is transferring.

Which type of bond forms when two or more atoms share electrons?

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.


What is meant by covalent and the ionic bond in the chemistry?

A covalent bond occurs when atoms share outer electrons.


What will atoms transfer one or more to another to form a bond?

Atoms will transfer electrons to form an ionic bond, where one atom gains electrons (anion) and another loses electrons (cation). Alternatively, atoms will share electrons to form a covalent bond, where the electrons are shared between atoms to achieve stability.


Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons and ionic bonds are formed when positive and negative ions bond to form an ionic compound.?

Yes, that's correct. In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. In an ionic bond, one atom transfers electrons to another, resulting in the attraction between oppositely charged ions to form a compound.


When atoms of two different elements share one or more pairs of electrons a ionic bond is forme?

No. Sharing of electrons means that the bond is covalent. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons.


What type of bond do atoms share electrons?

Atoms share electrons in a covalent bond. In a covalent bond, two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons to achieve a more stable electron configuration. This sharing of electrons creates a strong bond between the atoms.
