Answer:

D. Nonmetals with nonmetals, because of difference in electronegativity is below 1.7

Explanation:

The types of atoms that typically form covalent bonds are non-metals with non-metals because of the difference in their electronegativity which is below 1.7.

In some instances, the difference can even be zero when dealing with homonuclear substances.

Covalent bond are formed between two or more atoms having low electronegativity differences between them.
Each of the atoms share their valence electrons to be able to mimic the noble gases.
The participating atoms will put down an unpaired electron to be used in forming a shared pair of electrons between them.

AlladinOne [14]

Explanation:

Atoms of metals do not hold their electrons to themselves. Instead they allow them to float around them delocalised. This is important because it is this characteristic that allows metals to be good conductors of electricity since electrons are free to move around to carry a charge.

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.

The cell notation is:

$Mg(s)|Mg^{+2}(aq)||Ag^{+}(aq)|Ag(s)$
