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 type of change occurs when electrons form a bond between two atoms?

A chemical change occurs when electrons form a bond between two atoms. This is because the electrons are being shared or transferred between the atoms, leading to the formation of a new compound with different chemical properties.

What are donated or shared when two atoms form a bond?

When two atoms form a bond, electrons are donated or shared. In an ionic bond, one atom donates electrons to the other, while in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between the atoms.

What is a coordinate covalent bond?

A coordinate covalent bond is when two atoms have a covalent bond where the two electrons that are shared by the atoms in the bond come from only one of the atoms. This bond does not have any different properties than a polar covalent bond it is just named differently to show that the electrons came from an atom with a lone pair. This occurs when a Lewis base donates electrons to a Lewis acid.
