How are ionic bonds and metallic bonds different from each other?

Include: what occurs with electrons in each type of bond? How/why the atoms are attracted (bonded) to each other?

Covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons, while metallic bonds have strong attractions and ionic bonds involve the transferring and accepting of electrons from the valence shell. The adhering property of an atom, in order to arrange themselves in a most stable pattern by filling their outermost electrons orbit.

Answer:

Ionic bond is bond between a metal and non metal , metallic bonding happens between positive metals ions and negative electrons in a metal

Step-by-step explanation:

ionic Bond is the transfer of electrons between a metal and non metal due to strong electrostatic force of attraction between positive metal ions and negative non metal ions

in metallic bonding , there is a force of attraction between positive metal ions and the sea of electrons surrounding it
