What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
When molecules are formed atoms share or loose electrons?
To form a molecule, atoms can share, lose, and gain electrons
Do atoms join by a covalent bond do not gain or lose electrons?
Atoms that join by a covalent bond share electrons but do not gain or lose them. In a covalent bond, the electrons are shared between the atoms, creating a stable electron configuration for both atoms involved.
What is a reason for atoms to not gain lose or share electrons?
This depends on the electronegativity of atoms.
Do ion share electrons with other atoms?
Ions do not share electrons with other atoms. Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Positive ions (cations) lose electrons, while negative ions (anions) gain electrons.
Do atoms of a covalent bond lose or gain elecrons?
do atoms of a covalent bond lose r share electrons
Do atoms lose and gain electrons when a new substance is forming?
Some atoms lose electrons, some gain electrons, and some share electrons depending on what elements are involved and what compound is forming.
Why do atoms share gain or lose electrons?
Atoms share, gain, or lose electrons in order to achieve a stable configuration, usually a full valence shell. This is known as the octet rule. By doing so, atoms can attain lower energy levels and become more stable.
What does atoms tend to gain lose or share electrons so as to have 8 electrons?
A completely filled shell of electrons has 8 electrons.
"atoms share electrons"?
Atoms share electrons when they form covalent bonds.
Do Covalent bonds do not gain or lose electrons?
That is correct. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms rather than the transfer of electrons, as seen in ionic bonds. The atoms involved in a covalent bond share electrons in order to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
When atoms share electrons what forms?
A covalent bond forms when atoms share electrons.
