Ionic bond; ionic bonds occur when an element, mainly a metal, loses its electron ( to become positively charged) to an other element, mainly a nonmetal, ( to become negatively charged), to form an ionic compound.
For example :-
Na + Cl = NaCl

∙ 14y agoThere are two types of bonds: ionic and covalent bonds. Covalent bonds form when two atoms share electrons, whereas ionic bonds are formed between a metal and a non-metal when one or more of the metal's electrons are transfered to the non-metal. I think of it as the metal giving :) but I guess a non-metal stealing electrons would have the same outcome.

How do atoms interact and create chemical bonds?
Chemical bonds are formed by the sharing or donating of electrons. The electrons that atoms use to make chemical bonds are the outermost electrons, also known as valence electrons.
What chemical changes involve breaking and making chemical bonds?
Breaking of bonds but also formation of new bonds.
Which electrons in an atom make a chemical bonds?
Mostly outer electrons are involved in chemical bonds, however the inner electrons provide magnetic forces and they effect chemical reactions.
What kind of bonds form when atoms steal electrons?
This is an ionic bond.
What particles play roles in creating chemical bonds?
Electrons are the particles involved in chemical bonds.

What can be shared in chemical bonds?
Electrons are shared in chemical bonding.
What are chemical bonds that share electrons between atoms?
Covalent (molecular) bonds share electrons, while ionic bonds transfer electrons.
When atoms transfer or share electrons they form a chemical?
Chemical Bonds
The transfer or sharing of valence electrons creates chemical?
Chemical Bonds
In terms of chemical bonds and electrons what kinds of changes occur between atoms when substances undergo chemical reactions?
Bonds are broken by rearrangement of electrons, and then new bonds are made, again by rearrangement (sharing, donating, etc) of electrons.
What true about the formation of bonds?
All chemical bonds are formed by sharing electrons.
When atoms form chemical bonds which of these electrons are involved in the bonds?
the valence electrons take place i.e, the electrons present on outermost shell.
