Answer:
A chlorine atom has 7 electrons in its valence shell—it needs 8 to complete it. Two chlorine atoms can share 1 electron each to form a single covalent bond. They become a Cl2 molecule. Oxygen can also form covalent bonds, however, it needs a further 2 electrons to complete its valence shell (it has 6).
