The periodic table has 8 main groups, these groups correspond with the amount of electrons in the outer shell.

Another group within the periodic table is the Metals, Non-Metals and Metalloids. These are all sorted into groups

Covalent bonding is one of three types of binding processes. It is a process which is not as strong as ionic or metallic bonding, but it occurs between two non-metals. When two non metals both need an electron (or more), the atoms will share an electron with eachother. The more dominant atom will tend to take more of the electrons, and this will cause a slightly positive and negative charge on all of the atoms. Because of this, water can take the positive ion of sodium away from the negative ion of chlorine, which is how salt dissolves in water.

Covalent bonding though, can be very strong. In the case of carbon, it can be linked together into a very strong bonding sequence. This is called Giant Covalent bonding. An example of this is graphite, but diamond, the strongest substance on Earth, is also made through this process.

Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

This means when there is a negatively charged, it will bond with a positively charged ion.
