Neon is an inert (rarely reacting) non-metal. One of the reasons why is because it is located on the furthest family(column) to the right, all of which are Noble gases (A group of inert gases) and a gas cannot be a metal (though when a gas is condensed it can become a metal, but that doesn't happen in this particular case).

What consists of two nonmetal atoms bonded together?
Usually that's a covalent compound, and the representative particle is called a molecule.
Which is a covalently bonded molecule cl2 air Ne or salt?
Of the molecules given by formula in the question (after proper capitalization where needed), only Cl2 is covalently bonded.
What is hydrogen atom and hydrogen molecule?
Two atoms of hydrogen form a hydrogen molecule.They are bonded with a covalent bond.
How many covalent bonds are there in one molecule of Silica?
There are four covalent bonds in one molecule of silica. It is made of two oxygen atoms that are chemically bonded to a single silicon atom.
How does the outer shells of two atoms that are covalently bonded?
In a covalently bonded molecule, atoms are bonded by the sharing of their electrons. When Oxygen combines with two Hydrogen, H2O is formed by two covalent bonds. Oxygen, which has 6 outer electrons, needs to gain two electrons to form a completely stable octet of electrons. Each of the Hydrogen atoms requires a single electron to complete its outer level of electrons. The resulting molecule is a angularly bonded molecule of water with two double covalent bonds: O <- oxygen shares 1 electron with each hydrogen atom // \\ <-double covalent bond H H They overlap
Which is a convalenly bonded molecule cl2 air ne nacl?
Cl2 is covalent. NaCl is ionic.
What are atoms bonded together with covalent bonds?
When atoms are bonded together with covalent bonds, the result is a molecule.
In a single molecule of water the two hydrogen atoms are bonded to a single oxygen atom by?
covalent bonding
When atoms become bonded with covalent bonds the result is called a what?
a molecule
Is a diamond a covalent bond?
Damond is covalently bonded, a giant molecule
Is Br2 ionic or covalent?
covalent because Br2 is just to Bromine atoms bonded together
Is nitrogen a molecule?
A Nitrogen molecule are two atoms of Nitrogen bonded by a covalent bond. The Nitrogen molecule is represented as N2.
Is Cl2 is a molecule with a double covalent bond?
Cl2 is a diatomic, single covalently bonded molecule. Cl-Cl
Two or more atoms held by covalent bonds form a what?
A covalently bonded molecule.
The atoms in a water molecule are held together by covalent bonds this means that the bonded atoms?
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.
What bond type does fluorine have?
Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.
What consists of two nonmetal atoms bonded together?
Usually that's a covalent compound, and the representative particle is called a molecule.
