Boy you are off the charts gorgeous, I would rate you a 69
The electrons in the outermost shell of the covalent compounds are shared by nearby atoms. As there are no free electrons for conducting electricity, the covalent compounds are perfect insulators at absolute zero. As the temperature increases, some electrons move from valence band to conduction band. This gives rise to conductivity. But as the numbers of charge carriers are very low, covalent compounds are poor conductors. On the other hand metals are good conductors cause of their bonding. Metallic bonding consists of a sea of electrons rather than discreet bonds. The free electrons are able to move freely. Since electricity and heat need electrons to move, the bonding promotes conductivity.

Answer: A) Two atoms share electrons so they can fill their outer shells
Explanation: A covalent bond is a type of bond formed by sharing equal number of electrons between two non-metal atoms so that both of them can attain a stable octet or duplet structure of noble gases.
In covalent bonding, there is no loss or gain of electrons between atoms. For example, the formation of chlorine molecule, chlorine atom has seven electrons in its outermost shell, remaining one electron to attain an octet structure of noble gases. Two chlorine atoms share one pair of electron, each chlorine atom donating one electron to form a pair so that each atom in the chlorine molecule attains an octet structure..
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The structure of ATP is such that there are three (3) phosphate moelcules in sequence attached to the 5’ carbon of the ribose sugar ring. The O- groups of each phosphate are close to each other and are negatively charged. They, therefore, repel each ohtehr electrostatically and make ATP very unstable – hence considered weak bonds. ADP is more stable than ATP. Nonetheless, phosphoanhydride bonds between the phosphate have high energy of ΔG of -30.5 kJ/mol. These characteristic make ATP ideal as ane energy currency since it is easy to hydrolyze while producing much energy.
