Meaning
A covalent bond is a type of chemical bond in which atoms share electrons with one another.
About Covalent Bonds
- Atoms are more chemically stable when their outer shell is full of electrons. One way atoms can have a full outer shell is by sharing some electrons with other atoms, this is a covalent bond.
- Covalent bonds happen between non-metal elements.
- Covalent bonds can be represented by a Dot and Cross Diagram to show how the electrons are shared between the outer shells of different atoms.
Examples
The two Oxygen atoms each share two of their electrons with one another. | The two Nitrogen atoms each share three of their electrons with one another. | Each Oxygen shares two of its electrons with the Carbon atom while the Carbon atom shares two electrons with each Oxygen atom. |
