How are covalent bonds formed?
Covalent bonds are present in the air you breathe and the water you drink.
Answer (2)
Covalent bond is the term that is being used to describe the bonds in the compounds that are created due to the sharing of one or more electrons. One of the best example of the simplest covalent bond is the bond that is being created when two isolated hydrogen atoms come together to form an H2 molecule. An isolated hydrogen atom has one proton and electron being combined by the force of attraction from the opposite-charged articles. When a pair of isolated hydrogen atom combines, two forces of attraction are created coming from each of the isolated hydrogen atom.
Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms to achieve stability. This process allows atoms to fill their outermost electron shells and can involve single, double, or triple bonds. An example of a covalent bond is the bond formed between two hydrogen atoms to create H2.
