The electrons in the outside shells of atoms are responsible for bonding. Therefore, it is important to know how many electrons there are in the outside shell of each atom. There are three types of chemical bond: metal atoms join to non-metal atoms by ionic bonding, non-metal atoms join to other non-metal atoms by covalent bonding, and metal atoms join by metallic bonding. By understanding how atoms join together on an individual basis, we can build up a picture of how millions of atoms join together, and relate this to the physical properties of the material.
