When nonmetals react with nonmetals, their atoms typically share electrons to form covalent bonds. This sharing allows each atom to achieve a more stable electron configuration, often resembling that of noble gases. As a result, molecules are formed, which can have various physical and chemical properties depending on the specific nonmetals involved.
