In an ionic bond, one or more electrons is "given up" by on atom or molecule to the other and in a covalent bond, one or more electrons is "shared" between atoms or molecules.
Thanks!
You're welcome. I am sure that it would help you to write it in your own words though! :-)
Ionic bonding also happens between a metal and a non - metal for example sodium to oxygen. Covalent bonding happens between two non-metals like nitrogen and chlorine.
