1. Lewis Symbol
Also known as electron dot notation.
Lewis structures are representations of the atom and its valence electrons. In a Lewis structure the nucleus is represented by the symbol of the atom and the valence electrons are represented by dots placed around the atomic symbol
2. Ionic Bonding
An ionic bond is a Chemical bond formed by an Electrostatic process of two oppositely charged ions ( + and - ), a cation, usually a metal, and an anion, usually a nonmetal. Pure ionic bonding cannot exist: all ionic compounds have some degree of Covalent Bonding. The larger the difference in electronegativity between the two atoms involved in the bond, the more ionic (polar) the bond is. Ionic bonding is a form of noncovalent bonding. Formation The Form proceeds when the cation (Lower ionization energy) release some electrons to stabilize electron configuration . And, the anion (Higher ionization energy) accepts the Electron to stable the configuration. Structure Usually the ionic bond generate solid material that can dissolve in water.

Covalent Bonds
When a covalent bond forms with unequally shared electrons, the bond is said to be a polar covalent bond.
