illustrate all three types of covalent bond
Answers
Answer:
The three types as mentioned in the other answers are polar covalent, nonpolar covalent, and coordinate covalent.
The first, polar covalent, is formed between two nonmetals that have a difference in electronegativity. They share their electron density unevenly. Most of the electron density will be spread towards the electronegative element, and provide a charge separation in the atom.
The nonpolar covalent bond is formed between atoms with very similar electronegativities so density is shared throughout.
Coordinate covalent bonds are mainly formed between transition metals and what are called "ligands"... compounds or atoms that share their nonbonding electron pairs with the empty D orbitals of a transition metal.

Answer:
hey there!
here's ur answer
Explanation:
Covalent bond involves sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
There are 3 types of covalent bonds:
1) Single covalent bond: This bond is formed when two electrons share only one sigma bond between two atoms (total 2 electrons).
For eg. hydrogen bond
ie. H--H bond
2) Double covalent bond: This bond is formed when two electrons share one sigma and one pi bond each (total 4 electrons).
For eg. oxygen bond
ie. O=O bond
3) Triple covalent bond: This bond is formed when two electrons share one sigma and otwo pi bond each (total 6 electrons).
For eg. nitrogen bond
ie. N≡N
