Any non-metallic atom can share electrons with another non-metallic atom, through covalent bonding.
Metallic bonding is between metals.
Covalent bonding is between non-metals.
Ionic bonding is typically between a metal and a non-metal.

How do covalent bonds work?
Covalent bonds form when two nonmetals share an electron. Hi Covalent bonds occur when nonmetal elements have a unstable outermost shell know as the valence electrons. The two non-metal either give up of gain electrons and then live with the other element or elements outer shell. A common everday example is water also know as H20 it has 2 hydrogens and one oxygen. Oxygen's has 6 valence electrons so it need to electron to have a full outermost shell. Hydrogen has one 1 electron in its valence shell, so one 1 electron joins the 6 electron, but oxygen needs 8 for a full outer shell so another hydrogen joins in and then all three have full outer shells because they all live in the valence shell. Hydrogen joins oxygen because it wants to get rid of its valence cell, so another joins in so oxygen can get a full shell and they all can live together in the valence shell.
Why do carbon always forms covalent bond?
Carbon has four valence electrons in its outermost orbit which indicate it need four further electrons to complete its valence according to octect rule. It is also not possible for Carbon to remove all of its four valence electrons for the same cause of obeying octect rule. Hence the only option left for carbon is make covalent bonds with another carbon or any other element whose electrons are available for making a covalent bond. That's why most of the compounds of carbon are covalent.
Where are the atoms in an FCC unit cell located?
The atoms are located within the cell membrane.
How do you demonstrate osmosis?
If you mean as in a drawing, then it is a line or outer covering (cell wall) and atoms trying to get through to them. Have two different kinds. That's all i can help you with right now. Hope I helpes :o
Atoms are made up of smaller parts called?
cell membrane, nucleus,mitochondria

What is the molecule responsible for chemical reactions?
The cell itself is responsible for chemical reactions. Chemical reactions are the basis of life, and all parts of the cell work together to make them happen. Specifically the enzyme and mitochondria are often cited as being responsible. The enzymes are proteins that create a binding surface for the chemical reaction and speed the process. The mitochondria act as a digestive system and energizer for the cell.
What is the outer boundary of the cell of a plant cell?
Outer dynamic boundary is cell membrane. Outer boundary is cell wall
What is The outer boundary of the cell is?
The outer boundary of a cell is called the cell membrane, and is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.
How are cell and atoms different?
Atoms are extremely small and there are about 113 different known types. Atoms are composed of three types of particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Which is the smallest protons atoms electrons neutrons or cells?
protons and neutrons are usually the same size and are inside an atom so the atom is obviously bigger and an atom is inside a cell so a cell is biggest so therefore ELECTRONS ARE SMALLEST
The outer covering of an animal cell?
The outer covering of an animal cell is the cell membrane. The outer covering of plant cells is the cell wall, which is much stronger and stiff.
What cell structure forms the outer boundary of plant cells?
The outer boundary of a plant cell is the cell wall.
What is the outer most boundary of an animal cell?
The outer boundary of an animal cell is the cell membrane.
What is the thin outer boundary of an animal cell?
The cell membrane. It is a lipid bilayer with proteins integrated into it for transportation into and out of the cell.
What ion is formed when an atom loses an electron.?
A positive ion is formed when atoms lose electrons. When a cell gains an electron it becomes negative
What is smaller then one cell?
There are many things: 1 Organelles like ribosomes or vacuoles that are inside tha cell 2 Viruses 3 Molecules 4 Atoms that make up molecules 5 Electrons That are part of atoms 6 protons that are also part of atoms There might be more that i dont know about
