Covalent bonds are formed when 2 neutral atoms come together to share a pair of electrons, where each atom contributes one electron each to be shared.
The covalent bond is kept together by the electrostatic attraction between the nuclei of the atoms and the shared pair of electrons.
Covalent bonds are usually formed between non metals with a small difference in their electro negativity.
the correct answer is
A. Neutral atoms coming together to share electrons
Atomic mass of magnesium = (23.99 x 78.99%) + (24.99 x 10.00%) + (25.98 x 11.01%)
= 24.31 g/mol
Answer:
According to the Brønsted definition, an acid is a substance capable of donating a proton, and a base is a substance capable of accepting a proton. ... The species giving up the proton is HCl, an acid. The species accepting the proton is water, the base. The species Cl- is the conjugate base of HCl.
The answer is the troposphere
Nonpolar covalent bonds are chemical bonds where two atoms share a pair of electrons with each other and the electronegativities of the two atoms are equal. An example is methane. It has four carbon-hydrogen single covalent bonds. These bonds are nonpolar because the electrons are shared equally.
