Question

Covalent bonds are in the air you breathe and the water you drink. How are covalent bonds formed ? A) between atoms with more electrons than protons B) between atoms that share electrons C) between atoms with more neutrons than prontons

Answer 1

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
