    • An ionic compound is a substance made up of ions, which are atoms that have gained or lost electrons and have a net positive or negative charge.
    • A covalent compound is a molecule made up of two or more non-metal atoms that are held together by covalent bonds.
    • A covalent bond is a chemical bond that forms when atoms share valence electrons. The shared electrons are attracted to the positive nuclei of both atoms, holding them together in the molecule.
