What The double bond between carbon atom and two oxygen atoms has two characteristics what are they?
The answer is c. Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms & D. Four valence eletrons are shared
What bond forms between two atoms?
A chemical bond that may be ionic where the atoms bonded together are charged or covalent where electrons are shared. The nature of the bond depends on the relative electronegativity of the atoms involved. An example of an ionic bond is in sodium chloride. An example of a covalent bond is one between carbon and hydrogen for example in a hydrocarbon. When an element atom bonds to another atom of the same elemnt then that bond is covalent, eg O2, N2, H2, S8.
Why is H2O a covalent bond?
Yes, O2 is a covalent bond. 8 valence (outer-shell) electrons is a stable configuration, which is what every atom is trying to achieve. There are only 6 valence electrons in one single oxygen atom, which means it is looking for another two valence electrons. Since both oxygen atoms don't want to lose any valence electrons but want to gain two valence electrons, this means that they must each share two of their own with the other atom. Hence both atoms then have eight valence electrons. But because of their sharing electrons, they are stuck together because neither wants to lose their own two valence electrons. This is a covalent bond.
What do covalent bonds do to valence electrons?
Covalent bonds are when two or more atoms share electrons to receive perfect valence electron shells. So for example, H20, two hydrogen, with one valence electron, and one oxygen with six to form a perfect bond.
True or false if valence electrons are shared between atoms the bond is said to be covalent?

The electrostatic attration between the nuclei and valence electrons permits two atoms to be together by a?
Covalent bond
Where do valence electrons occur?
Valence electrons occur in the outermost shells of an atom. Valence electrons can be shared in covalent bonds. Covalent bonds occur between non-metals, like Carbon and Nitrogen.
What is valence electrons shared between atoms?
In a covalent bond electrons are shared between two electrons.
What The double bond between carbon atom and two oxygen atoms has two characteristics what are they?
The answer is c. Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms & D. Four valence eletrons are shared
What type of bond occurs when atoms share outer shell electrons?
a chemical bond in which valence electrons are shared between atoms giving each of them a full valence shell is a covalent bond.

A chemical bond that may be ionic where the atoms bonded together are charged or covalent where electrons are shared. The nature of the bond depends on the relative electronegativity of the atoms involved. An example of an ionic bond is in sodium chloride.

What occurs whenever valence electrons are shared or transferred between atoms?
Covalent bond
In a covalent bond can atoms become chemically stable by sharing their valence electrons?
Yes, a covalent bond involve sharing of electrons between two atoms.
