In chemistry, atoms bond together to create different types of compounds by either sharing or transferring electrons from one element to another. When a bond is shared, it is a covalent bond. Transferred electrons occur in ionic bonds. It is also important to note the difference between a compound and a mixture. In a mixture, different substances mix together, but the atoms from each substance in a mixture do not bond together. Some substances only form a mixture when brought together, but others bond immediately. This process can happen gradually, such as when iron comes in contact with oxygen to form rust. At other times, a compound forms more quickly, such as when oxygen and lithium are mixed.A compound is a material made from two or more chemical elements that have bonded. The two main types of compound bonds are covalent bonds and ionic bounds.
