How do atoms form bonds, and what distinguishes ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds?
Atoms form bonds by transferring electrons only.
Ionic bonds involve sharing electrons, while covalent bonds transfer electrons.
Covalent bonds involve sharing electrons, while metallic bonds involve free movement of electrons.
Metallic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between atoms.
Ionic bonds form between two nonmetals.
Covalent bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal.
All bonds result in the creation of a stable electron shell without the movement of electrons.
