Covalent bonds are formed when 2 neutral atoms come together to share a pair of electrons, where each atom contributes one electron each to be shared.
The covalent bond is kept together by the electrostatic attraction between the nuclei of the atoms and the shared pair of electrons.
Covalent bonds are usually formed between non metals with a small difference in their electro negativity.
the correct answer is
A. Neutral atoms coming together to share electrons

Answer: 1 mol of oxygen, O₂, and 1 mol of CO will have the same number of molecules, and the same number of atoms.
Justification:
Althought the question is too open, other answers may arise, the most remarkable similarity between the two compounds is that both are diatomic.
That means that both molecules oxygen, O₂, and carbon monoxide, CO have two atoms.
So, 1 mol of oxygen, O₂, and 1 mol of CO will have the same number of molecules, and the same number of atoms.
You must remember that 1 mol means a specific number. It is Avogadro's number, which is 6.022 × 10 ²³.
So 1 mol of CO and 1 mol of O₂ are the same number of representative particles: 6.022 ×10²³ molecules eac, and two times that number of atoms each (since each molecule has two atoms).
<u>Carbon is an essential element for all life forms on Earth. Whether these life forms take in carbon to help manufacture food or release carbon as part of respiration, the intake and output of carbon is a component of all plant and animal life. Carbon is in a constant state of movement from place to place.</u>
