Question

explain in detail how a covalent bond is formed between hydrogen and chlorine atoms to give HCL molecule write properties of such compounds with respect to: 1. melting and boiling point 2. electrical conductivity​

Answer 1

Answer:

Covalent bonds are characterized by the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms. These bonds mostly occur between nonmetals or between two of the same (or similar) elements.Two atoms with similar electronegativity will not exchange an electron from their outermost shell; the atoms instead share electrons so that their valence electron shell is filled.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Hydrogen has 1 electron in its outermost shell,and needs 1 more electron to attain the configuration of Helium
• Chlorine has Seven electrons in its outer most shell,it needs 1 more electron to attain the configuration of nearest noble gas Argon

so they share electron between them.

.They have low melting point

.They are bad conductors of electricity
