Study Notes
Covalent Bonds
- A covalent bond is a type of chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons between atoms.
- Electrons are involved in a covalent bond as they are shared between atoms to form a bond.
- Non-metal elements, such as carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen, typically form covalent bonds.
- Covalent bonds are formed through the sharing of electrons between atoms.
- In a covalent bond, the electrons are shared equally or unequally between atoms to form a molecule.
- Covalent bonds are characterized by the formation of molecules, which are groups of atoms bonded together through covalent bonds.
