Answer:

Hey

Explanation:

Covalent bonds and ionic bonds are two different ways of how elements bond to each other. The main difference between covalent and ionic bonds is that ionic bonds occur between two species which are electrostatically attracted towards each other, whereas covalent bonds occur covalently through the sharing of electrons between their outer shells.

Answer:

<h2>Ionic bond</h2>

<em>Meani</em><em>ng</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>When</em><em> there is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between a cation and an anion (two oppositely charged ions) of elements is called the ionic bond. This bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal.</em>

Involves :-<em>Transfer and accepting of electrons from the valence shell.</em>

Existence :-<em> </em><em>They also exist in the solid state only.</em>

<em>Exampl</em><em>es</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>NaCl</em><em>, BeO, LiF, etc</em>

<h2>Covalent bond</h2>

Meaning :- <em>When there is a strong electrostatic force of attractions between two positively charged nuclei and the shared pair of electrons is called the covalent bond.</em>

Involves :- <em>Sharing of electrons in the valence shell.</em>

Existence:- <em>Exist as solids, liquids and gases</em>.

Examples :- <em>Diamond, carbon, silica, hydrogen gas, water, nitrogen gas, etc.</em>
