A covalent bond.
Gold is a "Noble Metal", which means its atoms do not readily share electrons with atoms of other elements.
hydrogen atoms share electrons when it forms covalent bonds
When elements form covalent bonds, they share electrons with each other. In covalent bonding none of the atoms gains or looses the electrons but share the electrons among them and hence both try to achieve stable electronic configuration.
Covalent bonds share electrons.
To form a molecule, atoms can share, lose, and gain electrons
Yes !
yeap!
In an ionic compound, the atoms must transfer electrons. In a molecular compound, the atoms must share electrons.
their atoms take,give,or share electrons with other atoms :)
They can either lose or share electrons when they combine with other elements. So, depending on the conditions , these elements can behave as either metals or nonmetalss. Durr !
No. Sharing of electrons means that the bond is covalent. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons.
Covalent bonds, (single, double, triple)
Gold is a "Noble Metal", which means its atoms do not readily share electrons with atoms of other elements.
Some atoms lose electrons, some gain electrons, and some share electrons depending on what elements are involved and what compound is forming.
Atoms share electrons when they form covalent bonds.
Atoms of non-metals usually gain or share electrons when they react with other atoms.
A covalent bond forms when atoms share electrons.
