Best Answer

there are various bonds formed to form compounds

1 ionic bonds- bond formed from electrostatic attraction eg NaCl

2 covalent bond -two elements share electrons eg O2, Cl2

3 dalton bond or co ordinate covalent bond - dative bond is a covalent bond where both electrons come from the same atom. NH3 -BF3

They have different numbers of protons and nuetrons, and feature a different number of electrons at an uncharged state.

They can exchange electrons and form ions which attract and form a crystal lattice.

OR they can share electrons to form covalent bonds, thus forming separatemolecules.
