When atoms bond but do not share electrons this is known as an ionic bod. Here electrons are donated from one of the atoms to another in order to ensure that both atoms have a full outer shell. E.g. MgO or NaCl

Is formed when atoms share electrons?
A covalent bond is created when two atoms bond by sharing a pair of electrons.
A chemical bond in which two atoms share three pairs of electrons 6 electrons is an?
Two atoms sharing three pairs of electrons have a triple bond.
What is shared between two atoms in a double covalent bond?
The atoms share two pairs of electrons.
When atoms share two electrons does it have a double bond?
No , two shared electrons leads to a single bond
Only two identical atoms can share electrons unequally?
equally
Two atoms do this with their electrons when forming a covalent bond?
The two atoms share their electrons.
What do two atoms do with their electrons when forming a covalent bond?
In covalent bonds, the atoms share their electrons.
Which type of bonding do atoms share one or more electrons?
Covalent bonding occurs when atoms share two or more electrons. Electrons are shared in pairs.
When does a covalent bond form between two atoms?
atoms share two electrons
When two atoms share its electrons with another?
Atoms share electrons when they are in a covalent bond. A covalent bond occurs between two nonmetals that have a difference in electronegativities that is 1.7 or less.
How many electrons must the atoms of S share with other atoms in covalent bonding to achieve an octet of electrons?
two electrons
Is formed when atoms share electrons?
A covalent bond is created when two atoms bond by sharing a pair of electrons.
When two chlorine atoms bond they what a pair of electrons?
The atoms share the pair of electrons in a nonpolar covalent bond.
"atoms share electrons"?
Atoms share electrons when they form covalent bonds.
A chemical bond in which two atoms share three pairs of electrons 6 electrons is an?
Two atoms sharing three pairs of electrons have a triple bond.
Is the atom O--O sharing electrons or transferring electrons?
They share electrons. Atoms of the same or similar electronegativity will share electrons, and two atoms of the same type will of course have the same electronegativity. Also, two atoms joined together form a molecule, not an atom.
A chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons is called a(n)?
a covalent bond is when two atoms share a pair of electrons
