Covalent Bonding: This is when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. In our bee analogy, this would be like two bees agreeing to share a particular flower instead of buzzing around everywhere.
This is when one atom gives up one or more electrons (negative charges) and another accepts them. It's like if one bee gave its pollen (electron) away completely!
Metallic Bonding: This type involves delocalized electrons moving freely throughout a metal lattice structure – similar again to our bees buzzing freely around the garden.
