Which diagram represents an element that is likely to form covalent bonds
2 answers:
The picture of correct answer is attached it is the second one from the left since it has 5 electrons in outermost shell so it can share 3 electrons to complete the octet rule, while first one contains only one electron in outermost shell so it easier to be lost, third one has 8 electrons so it has complete valence shell and last one with only two electrons in outermost shell so it is easier to lose these two electrons.
from 5 to 7 electrons on outermost shell can form covalent bond
