What is covalent bond? Explain it with the help of an example.
Answers
Answer:
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding
Answer:
the chemical bond that done by sharing of an electrons to an atom is called as covalent bond
Explanation:
EXAMPLE:
let us take simple oxygen molecule (o 2)
the atomic number of oxygen is 8 so its electronic configuration is k Cell 2 L cell 6 thus oxygen has 6 electrons in its L shell therefore it need two or more electron to fill the L shell . hence to atom of Oxygen shared to electron of L shell to form a molecule of oxygen. as a result each atom of Oxygen attend the electronic configuration of their nearest noble gas neon which has 8 electron in their L shell there are four valence electron are depicted by dots or crosses is shown as follows
