Question

Which of the following describes covalent bonds?

  1. Bonds form because of opposite charges
  2. Electrons are shared to fill outer electron shells
  3. Electrons are transferred between atoms
  4. Covalent bonds are magical

Hint:

Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons.

The correct answer is: Electrons are shared to fill outer electron shells


    • Covalent bonds are formed by sharing valence shell electrons.
    • Covalent bonds are generally formed between two non-metals.
    • Electrons are shared to fill outer electron shells.
