Answer:

transferring or sharing electrons

Explanation:

Transfer of electrons from one atom to others creates positively and negatively charged particles, called ions. The opposite charges of these ions attract each other and form a chemical bond between them. Example: the bond between Na+ and Cl- ions form NaCl

Likewise, the sharing of electrons between two atoms creates a covalent bond to join them with each other. Here, sharing of electrons occurs to complete the octet of the atoms to impart them stable configuration. Example: sharing of electron between C and O forms CO (carbon monoxide).
