The two main types of bonds formed between atoms are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. An ionic bond is formed when one atom accepts or donates one or more of its valence electrons to another atom. A covalent bond is formed when atoms share valence electrons.

Hello..!

There are 2 main types of ions one is an atom where the electrons are shared between the atoms. the other is an electron where one atom loses an electron to become a neutral in a charged ion, and the other atom gains the electron to become a charged lon anion.

Ions with a positive charge are known as cations. Those that are negatively charged are called anions.
