The Valence electrons of an atom are shared or swapped (depending on whether it is a ionic or covalent bond)

Two pairs of electrons will be shared between two atoms.


How atoms are held in place in a covalent compound?

They are held together by forces. For more info go to bbc bitesize


What is a coordinate covalent bond?

A coordinate covalent bond is when two atoms have a covalent bond where the two electrons that are shared by the atoms in the bond come from only one of the atoms. This bond does not have any different properties than a polar covalent bond it is just named differently to show that the electrons came from an atom with a lone pair. This occurs when a Lewis base donates electrons to a Lewis acid.


What is the type of chemical reaction that occurs when 2 atoms are joined by a covalent bond?

mutual sharing of electrons take place.


How is a covalent bond formed between 2 atoms?

A single covalent bond is formed when two atoms share an electron pair. An example would be 2 hydrogen atoms, each with one electron. When they combine to form a hydrogen molecule (H2), they share the two electrons in a covalent bond. The formula might look like: H. + .H --> H:H
