When atoms share valence electrons to form a chemical bond what kind of bond is formed?
AdriannaMonique
Chemical bonds don't form electrons; an element has valance electrons. Covalent bonds are formed when elements share their valance electrons. An element wants to have 8 valance electrons. That is when it is an "happy atom". For example, carbon has has four valance electons, so it typically bonds with hydrogen and oxygen to get those four valance electrons.

∙ 13y agoWell.Not all atoms share electrons but some are and it depends on the number of their valence electrons only.If they are noble gas they are likely not to share electrons but the other atoms try to complete their octet and that's why they have a tendency to share electrons.
The type of bonding fully depends on the types of sharing.
1.Electrovalent bond:These type of bonding is shown between two dissimilar atoms which forms ions by loss or gain of electrons.
2.Covalent bond: It is the force which arises by the mutual sharing of electrons between atoms.

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
Which subatomic determines the atoms chemical properties and why?
Valence shell electrons or valence electrons determine the chemical properties of an atom...
Which parts of the atoms interact in a chemical reaction?
Electrons are involved in chemical reactions.
The chemical properties of an atom depend on the number of what?
It depends on the number of electrons in the outer valence shell in the atom
The chemical behavior of atoms is determined by the?
The chemical behavior is determined largely by the number of valence electrons.
How do atoms interact and create chemical bonds?
Chemical bonds are formed by the sharing or donating of electrons. The electrons that atoms use to make chemical bonds are the outermost electrons, also known as valence electrons.
What do you mean by valence shell and valence electrons?
The valence electrons are involved in the chemical bonding of atoms in a molecule.
What are the 3 types of bonds?
The three types of chemical bonds include the ionic bond, wherein bond is formed when one atom accepts or donates its valence electrons to another atom. Another chemical bond is the covalent bond, wherein bond is formed when atoms share valence electrons. Metallic bond is formed when electrons are shared by two metallic atoms.

What are valence atoms?
Valence atoms are actually electrons. These particular electrons are what helps form chemical bonds. They are free to attach to other atoms to form compounds and molecules.
Do valence electrons hold atoms together?
no, chemical bond does
Where would you find valence electrons?
They are the electrons in the outermost shell, and are the ones involved in most chemical reactions.
What part of atoms are involved in chemical bonding?
The valence electrons of the atom.
What electrons enable chemical bonds to form amongst atoms?
valence
Why do atoms with the same number of valence of electrons have similar chemical properties?
Because atoms with the same number of valence electrons react in similar ways with other elements.
