Why doesn't gold bond with anhy other elements?
Gold is a "Noble Metal", which means its atoms do not readily share electrons with atoms of other elements.
How many carbon atoms can bond to a single hydrogen atom?
Atoms of elements have a fixed number of electrons that can bond with other atoms. Carbon has 4 electrons that can bond with other atoms. So 4 hydrogen atoms can bond with one carbon atom.
What type of bond is formed if atoms donate electrons to other atoms when the elements are combined?
Cations donate atoms to form an ionic bond.
Why atoms of carbon so special?
They can bond with 4 other atoms.
When atoms bond with other atoms what do types of bonds do they form?
ionic

What type of bond is formed when gold bonds with itself?
Metallic bond, metallic positive grains surrounded by the electron cloud

Can carbon atoms bond with other atoms?
yes
Why do some atoms bond with other atoms?
Atoms combine with other atoms to form compound. It makes the atoms stable.
When are atoms of elements prone to bond with other atoms?
when they are in contact
Do atoms always bond to other atoms?
No, not always. Some can exist in what's called a "monatomic state". That is, they exist as a single atom, either due to artificial separation from other atoms, or because they have no need to bond to other atoms. Atoms tend to bond to other atoms to become more stable, but atoms that are already stable tend not to bond. Examples of such are the noble gasses, which rarely bond except through synthesis.
Two bromine atoms form a metallic bond?
If two bromine atoms form a bond with each other, the bond is covalent, not metallic.
