Each hydrogen atom is bonded to the oxygen atom in a covalent bond, in which they share valence electrons.
If you think to the metal iron - a metallic bonding exist.
Covalently bound atoms are held together by the sharing of electrons between the corresponding atoms.
Water, or H2O, consists of three atoms per molecule. Two hydrogen atoms (H2), one oxygen atom (O) and eight electrons. These three atoms are held together by hydrogen bonds.
This is a molecule.
The atoms in compounds are held together by chemical bonds
The atoms in a water molecule are held together by covalent bonds; this means that the bonded atoms have formed a hydrogen bond between them, leading to a water dimer.
Metal atoms held together by covalent bonds .
The atoms are held together by the mutual sharing of electrons between two atoms in a covalent bond.
No. What you describe is called a molecule. An ion is an atom or group of atoms with a net electrical charge.
If you think to the metal iron - a metallic bonding exist.
The water molecule itself is held together by polar covalent bonds between the oxygen atom and the two hydrogen atoms.
the atoms are held together because they a chemically combined.
Molecule is a group of atoms. They are held by chemical bonds.
Yes..?
<Novanet> compound!
Covalently bound atoms are held together by the sharing of electrons between the corresponding atoms.
Atoms are not held togetherinternally by covalent attraction, but instead by the so-called "strong force" of quantum theory. However, two or more atoms can be held together in molecules by covalent attraction.
