The two most basic types of bonds are characterized as either ionic or covalent.
- In ionic bonding, atoms transfer electrons to each other. ... In contrast, atoms with the same electronegativity share electrons
- in covalent bonds, because neither atom preferentially attracts or repels the shared electrons.

Answer:
Ionic compounds are formed by tranfer of ele tron from metal to non metals
covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions. Shared electrons located in the space between the two nuclei are called bonding electrons. The
