Answer:

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are characterized by the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms.

ITS properties are,:

  1. At room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure, covalent compounds may exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas.
  2. covalent compounds do not exhibit any electrical conductivity, either in pure form or when dissolved in water.
  3. The absence of charged ions is the main reason behind this. An exception to this is graphite.

Covalent compounds do not possess polar characteristics as a general property. Therefore, these compounds are insoluble in water.

Example: Methane

➡️❤️covalent bond refers to bond takes place between two atoms by sharing of electrons

properties :

they don't conduct electricity

they are weak

they are generally volatile in nature

structural formulas is based on saturated and unsaturated

saturated: alkanes with formula

CnH2n+2.

unsaturated :

alkenes : CnH2n

alkynes :CnH2n-2

hope it helps u mark as brainliest dear✌️
