When elements combine to form compounds, there are two major types of bonding that can result.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the modern periodic table, the groups on the left side contain elements that have very few electrons in their outermost shell. These elements prefer donating electrons in order to obtain a noble gas configuration. Therefore, the left side of the modern periodic table consists of metals.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the modern periodic table, metals are arranged on the leftmost side of the table and the rightmost side of the table contains non-metals.

Detailed explanation-4: -With the exception of HYDROGEN, the elements on the left side of the periodic table are METALS. Elements on the right side of the periodic table are NONMETALS.
