Yes, that is true. in order for it to be a redox reaction, both oxidation and reduction must be occurring.
An ion has a positive or negative charge. While a covalent bond always has no charge, meaning it is neutral.
If you look it up it will give you plenty of information. This is what I found:
The valence electrons of metals move freely in this way because metals have relatively low electronegativity, or attraction to electrons. The positive metal ions form a lattice-like structure held together by all the metallic bonds. ... When nonmetals bond together, the atoms share valence electrons and do not become ions

<u>Answer:</u>
<em>Chemistry is the reaction between certain elements to </em><em>create a new compound</em><em> which may happen naturally but is mostly man made and hence has lot of good as well as </em><em>adverse effects.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The <em>product or compound</em> that we get and the energy or outcome we receive is the ultimate result that decides whether chemical reaction that has happened is good or bad.
There are reactions that may cause pain and suffering to living beings and are also able to<em> Infuse damage and destruction</em> are are adverse nature. they can also change the course of nature hence are are <em>dangerous.

Tsunamis are most common in the Pacific Ocean Basin. The entire Pacific Ocean is ringed by areas known as subduction zones, where the tectonic plates of the earth are moving relative to one another. Subduction zones are where two or more plates are colliding and one is going underneath another.
