A covalent bond ocurs when two elements, which are usually non-metals, share electrons<span>. an ionic bond, however, ocurs when two elements, usually a metal and a non-metal, transfer </span>electrons<span>. because of the transfer of </span>electrons<span> that occurs during ionic bonding, ionic bonds are, for the most part, much stronger, hope it helps :)</span>

Elements that form ionic bonds generally have how many valence electrons? ± 1 or ± 2 ± 2 or ± 3 ± 4 ± 5
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

± 1 or ± 2

Explanation:

Electrovalent bonds are chemical bonds that are established on the premise of transferring electrons between two atoms.

In this bond type, a higly electronegative atom, typically a non-metal receives electrons from an atom with lesser electronegativity, a metal.

To know the number of electrons involved in forming electrovalent bonds, we typically look at the groups of atoms that combines to form the bond.

Metals are found in group I and II on the periodic table. Metals are electropositive and are good electron donors. These metals have 1 and 2 electrons in their valence shell respectively. In like manners, the more electronegative atoms are found in group VI and VII. The elements in these groups are non-metals with high electronegativity and requires just 1 and 2 electrons to complete their octet.
