There are primarily two categories of bonding between chemical entities. We have; Ionic Bonding and Covalent Bonding.
Ionic bonding or electrovalent bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. There is the transfer of electron from typically a metal to a non metal.
Covalent Bonding however involves the sharing of electrons between atoms. Depending on whuch atoms provide the electrons, it can be ordinary covalent oor coordinate covelent bond.
