Covalent Bond questions with correct answers

chemical bond CORRECT ANSWER the force that holds two atoms together Atoms gain stability when CORRECT ANSWER they share electrons and form covalent bonds. The stability of an atom, ion or compound is related to its energy: CORRECT ANSWER lower energy states are more stable Metals and nonmetals gain stability by CORRECT ANSWER transferring electrons (gaining or losing) to form ions that have stable noble-gas electron configurations. Another way atoms can gain stability is CORRECT ANSWER by sharing valence electrons with other atoms, which also results in noble-gas electron configurations Atoms in non-ionic compounds share CORRECT ANSWER electrons covalent bond CORRECT ANSWER The chemical bond that results from sharing electrons molecule CORRECT ANSWER formed
