How do ions form ionic bonds? ► View Available Hint(s) Two atoms come together to share their electrons. One atom swaps all of its negative electrons for all of the other atom's positive protons. lons of opposite electrical charges are attracted to each other to balance the charges. Olons of the same type are drawn together because they are attracted to their own kind.
