Question

Which among the following is a property of covalent bond?
a) Losing of electrons
b) Gain of electrons
c) Sharing of electrons
d) Transfer of electrons​

Answer 1

Answer:

Covalent bonds - c) Sharing of electrons

Explanation:

• A covalent bond is a chemical bond in which electrons are shared to form electron pairs between atoms.
• These pairs of electrons are known as covalent or bond pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when sharing electrons is called a covalent bond.
• Covalent bonds occur when electron pairs are shared by atoms.
• Atoms covalently bond with other atoms to increase stability. The formation of perfect electron shells is achieved by this.
• By sharing their outermost (valence) electrons, atoms can fill their outer electron shells and gain stability.

Answer 2

Answer:

The property of covalent bond is sharing of electrons.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

• A covalent bond is the interatomic linkage in the atoms formed due to the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
• The idea of sharing of electrons between two atoms was given by G.N. Lewis
• Described the formation of such bonds is due to the tendency of certain atoms to combine with one another to attain the noble-gas configuration.
• The atoms share their valence electrons, to fill their outermost  orbital and thus become stable.
• The electron pair is called a bonding pair and the binding force arises from the electrostatic force of attraction for the same electrons.
• The covalent bonds are directional, the bonded atoms orient themselves with one another, thus giving a definite shape to the molecule.

Therefore, the property of covalent bond is sharing of electrons.

So, the correct answer is option C.
