Sharing of Electrons Between 2 Atoms Forms A(n)

Question

Sharing of electrons between 2 atoms forms a(n)
A) hydrogen bond.
B) ionic bond.
C) covalence bond.
D) atomic bond.
E) covalent bond.

Accepted Answer

Sharing of electrons between 2 atoms forms a covalent bond. A covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where atoms share electrons in order to fill their valence shells and achieve stability. This is in contrast to an ionic bond, where one atom transfers electrons to another atom, and a hydrogen bond, which is a weak bond between a hydrogen atom and another electronegative atom. The terms "covalence bond" and "atomic bond" are not commonly used in chemistry.
