All atoms have electrons . However , the ones in the last shell receive the name of ____________________ electrons . This kind of electrons participate in the formation of ____________________ bonds . These bonds maintain 2 or more atoms together in order to create a new substance . If the bonded atoms are identical , an ____________________ is created . Otherwise , a ____________________ is produced . Depending if the bonded atoms are metals or non - metals , we can distinguish ____________________ types of bonds : ionic , ____________________ , and metallic . In ionic bonding , an electron is ____________________ from the metal to the non - metal . In covalent bonding , the electron ( s ) are ____________________ between the atoms . In metallic bonding , the electrons are released by the atoms creating a ____________________ of electrons which makes them excellent ____________________ conductors .
