c. valence electrons of two atoms are shared so as to fill the outer electron shells of both atoms.

d. valence electrons of one atom are transferred to fill the inner electron shell of another atom.

e. electrons in the inner shell of two atoms are shared so as to fill the outer electron shells of both atoms.
