Question

A covalent chemical bond is one in which:_____.a) outer-shell electrons of one atom are transferred to the inner electron shells of another atom.b) protons or neutrons are shared by two atoms so as to satisfy the requirements of both.c) the inner-shell electrons of one atom are transferred to the outer shell of another atom.d) electrons are removed from one atom and transferred to another atom so that the two atoms become oppositely charged.e) outer-shell electrons are shared by two atoms so as to satisfactorily fill the outer electron shells of both.f) an electron occupies a hybrid orbital located between the nuclei of two atoms.

Answer 1

Answer:

A.outer-shell electrons of one atom are transferred to the inner electron shells of another atom.

Explanation:

In covalent chemical bond, outer shell share pair of electrons to fill both atoms outer shell. Covalent bond can be polar and non-polar. Hydrogen and carbon bonding is example of non-polar bonds; while hydrogen bonding with chlorine is polar covalent bond example
