What else can I help you with?
What elements make covalent bonds?
A non-metal and a non-metal form covalent bonds.
What are clues for ionic and covalent bonding?
A metal bonding with non-metals tend to form ionic bonds, a non-metal that bonds with another non-metal tend to form covalent bonds.
Which two would typically form a covalent bond?
Two non metal atoms typically form a covalent bonds.
What elements tend to form covalent bonds?
Non-metal+Non-metal
What type of bond do non metals form with other non metals?
Covalent :)
Is P ionic or covalent?
As a non-metal Phosphorous can form ionic compouds with metals and covalent compounds with other non-metals.
Can metals and non metals form covalent bonds?
Metals typically do not form covalent bonds, as they tend to lose electrons to form positive ions. Non-metals, on the other hand, can form covalent bonds by sharing electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. In some cases, metals and non-metals can form covalent bonds if the non-metal behaves like a metalloid and shares electrons with the metal.
Is nitrogen gas ionic or covalent?
Nitrogen forms a diatomic molecule, or N2 Covalent bonds form between non-metals and non-metals Ionic bonds form between non-metals and metals. Because nitrogen is a non-metal and bonds with itself it forms a covalent bond.
Is it possible for non metals and metals to form non polar covalent?
Yes, it is possible.
Will an ionic or covalent bond form between hydrogen and sulfur?
A covalent bond will form between hydrogen and sulfur. Hydrogen typically forms covalent bonds because it can share its electron with other atoms. Sulfur also forms covalent bonds with hydrogen by sharing electrons to achieve stability.
How does the covalent bond form?
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons, especially between non metals.
Can carbon and hydrogen form non-polar covalent bonds?
Yes, carbon and hydrogen can form non-polar covalent bonds. In a non-polar covalent bond, electrons are shared equally between the atoms, resulting in a neutral charge distribution and no separation of charges along the bond. Carbon and hydrogen have similar electronegativities, so they share electrons equally in their covalent bond, making it a non-polar bond.
