1. Ionic bonding

2. Covalent bonding

3. Metallic bonding

Explanation:

Ionic bonding also referred to as electrovalent bonding is a kind of chemical bonding that involves the transfer of electrons between the valence shells of two elements with a large electronegativity difference usually a metal and a nonmetal.

For example an ionic bonding scenario might play out between a group one metal and a group seven halogen. While group one metals have one electron hindering their stability, group seven halogens need that one electron that could make them achieve this stability. It is this that causes them to come together in a way where the electron is transferred completely from the valence shell of the group 1 atom and accepted into the valence shell of the group 7 halogen.

Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of comparable electronegativities. The electro negativity difference is not large enough to permit the total movement of the electrons and hence the electrons are then controlled by the nuclei of the two atoms

Between two metals, what we have is called the metallic bonding
