What type of change occurs when the electrons of two atoms interact to form an atomic bond?

They either share electrons (both attract the electrons so the electrons end up orbiting both atoms) called covalent bonding, or one atom transfers 1 or more electrons to another atom called ionic bonding.

Which explains the change in ionization energy that occurs between removing the first and second electrons from an atom?
The attraction between electrons and the atomic nucleus is changed.
What type of change occurs when electrons form a bond between two atoms?
It's a chemical change that takes place.
Which part or parts of an atom are responsible for bonding with other atoms?
Bonding between atoms occurs at the valence electron level. Core electrons and the atomic nucleus are unaffected.
Does the identity of an uncharged atom change when it becomes an ion?
No. It is still that element with its unique number of protons (atomic number), but the numbers of electrons and protons are no longer equal and it will form an ionic bond with an ion of opposite charge. This will form an ionic compound, whose properties are different from the individual elements of which it is made, but the elements themselves do not change.
What change occurs when an Sn plus 2 ion is oxidized?
Oxidation indicates a loss of electrons, in this situation 2 electrons are lost, as a result it's electric charge becomes more positive.
Which explains the change in ionization energy that occurs between removing the first and second electrons from an atom?
The attraction between electrons and the atomic nucleus is changed.
What is the energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons called?
The energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons is called the
How does the atomic number of a nucleus change when beta decay occurs?
The atomic number increases by one unit when a beta decay occurs.
How is the aurora borealis seen?
the aurora borealis (northern lights) occurs when the highly charged electrons interact with earth's atmophere.
Which subatomic particle of the atom in a molecule interacts with photons?
Almost all atomic interaction with photons occurs with the atom's electrons.
What is the energy change that occurs when an atom loses electrons called?
ionization energy
How does a nucleus change when beta decay of the nucleus occurs?
The atomic number increases by one unit when a beta decay occurs.
Which has a larger radius arsenic or phosphorus?
Carbon has a larger atomic radius than nitrogen. The radii of these compounds are 67pm and 56pm, respectively. This occurs because the electrons in nitrogen are more attracted to the nucleus than electrons in carbon.
What type of change occurs when electrons form a bond between two atoms?
It's a chemical change that takes place.
Unequal sharing of electrons occurs when one atom's protons have a greater pull on the shared electrons?
This does occur. The bonds begin to form when electrons from two different atoms begin to interact with other atoms until the two atoms become joined together.
What major change occurs as you move from left to right across periodic table?
the atoms of the element are less reactive and smaller. they are smaller because of the larger amount of valence electrons compacting the atom.What_moves_left_to_right_on_the_periodic_table
Which part or parts of an atom are responsible for bonding with other atoms?
Bonding between atoms occurs at the valence electron level. Core electrons and the atomic nucleus are unaffected.
