In a molecule of oxygen, the two atoms of oxygen are bonded to each other by covalent
bonding. The two atoms of oxygen share their two valence electrons and achieve stable
electronic configuration.
Non-polar covalent bond between two oxygen atoms.
gug
The polar covalent bond between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms holds it together.
Elmer's Glue.
The bond in water is covalent.
Covalent Bonds
1. A molecule is a group of at least two atoms chemically combined in definiteproportions.For example, a water molecule (H2O) is always composed of two atoms of hydrogen chemically combined with one of oxygen. (a 2 hydrogen :1 oxygen proportion)If you have a combination of three hydrogen atoms with one oxygen atom(3 hydrogen:1 oxygen ) , the combination is notwater;this is what is meant by defininte proportions.2. Molecules are held together by covalent bonds;i.e., the sharing of pairs of electrons holds the atoms together. Also, molecules are held together by columbic forces or forces of electrostatic attraction in case of ionic compounds.Additional Note : * If different kinds of atoms combine to form a molecule, thesubstance formed is called a compound.An example of a compound is water.* If atoms of the same kind combine to form a molecule, the substance iscalled an element.Example , oxygen (O2)
double covalent bonds
The polar covalent bond between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms holds it together.
The hydrogen and oxygen are held together by polar covalent bonds.
In a water molecule the hydrogen atoms are held to the oxygen atom by covalent chemical bonds.
Elmer's Glue.
In a water molecule the hydrogen atoms are held to the oxygen atom by covalent chemical bonds.
The two hydrogen atoms in a hydrogen molecule are held together by a covalent bond.
Bonds hold atoms together. There are hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and covalent bonds.
The bond in water is covalent.
