1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is sharing of electrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms. This is usually formed between two non-metals.

<u>For Example:</u> Formation of hydrogen chloride molecule

Electronic configuration of hydrogen = 1s^1

Electronic configuration of chlorine = 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

Hydrogen and chlorine atoms are need only 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration. So, they share electron and form covalent bond.

Hence, the correct answer is sharing of electrons.
