Between what atoms is a covalent bond most likely to occur calcium and lithium sodium and flourine nitrogen and oxygen helium and argon?

calcium and lithium are both metals and dont form bond with each other. sodium and flourine form ionic compound, sodium fluoride. nitrogen and oxygen form covalent bond in the nitrogen oxides. helium and argon are both nonmetals / noble gases and dont form bond with each other.


Anomalous properties of nitrogen?

Nitrogen differs from the rest of the members of its group due to it's small size, high electronegativity, high ionization enthalpy and non availability of d-orbitals. It has an ability to form p(pi)-p(pi) bonds with itself and hence it is inert at room temperature. Other elements if its group are singly bonded.
