How is the valence electrons of an atom related to a chemical bonding?

The valence electrons are the only electrons that are involved in chemical bonding. These electrons can be shared or transferred. A simple rule of thumb is that atoms "strive" to attain the octet either by loss gain or sharing of electrons.

When two element form a covalent bond what do the electrons do?

A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding that is characterized by the sharing of pairs ofelectrons between atoms, and other covalent bonds. In short, the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when they share electrons is known as covalent bonding.[1]Covalent bonding includes many kinds of interaction, including σ-bonding, π-bonding, metal to metal bonding, agostic interactions, and three-center two-electron bonds.[2][3] The term covalent bond dates from 1939.[4] The prefix co- means jointly, associated in action, partnered to a lesser degree,etc.; thus a "co-valent bond", essentially, means that the atoms share "valence", such as is discussed in valence bond theory. In the molecule H2, the hydrogen atoms share the two electrons via covalent bonding. Covalency is greatest between atoms of similar electronegativities. Thus, covalent bonding does not necessarily require the two atoms be of the same elements, only that they be of comparable electronegativity. Although covalent bonding entails sharing of electrons, it is not necessarily delocalized. Furthermore, in contrast to electrostatic interactions ("ionic bonds") the strength of covalent bond depends on the angular relation between atoms in polyatomic molecules.


What is a scientific bond?

A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electromagnetic force attraction between opposite charges, either between electrons and nuclei, or as the result of a dipole attraction. The strength of chemical bonds varies considerably; there are "strong bonds" such as covalent orionic bonds and "weak bonds" such as dipole-dipole interactions, the London dispersion force and hydrogen bonding.


Where are non-bonding electrons found?

The electrons in the valence shell are those most concerned with bonding and how that occurs. The "non-bonding" electrons are the ones in the inner shells, or the non-valence shells of an atom. Non-bonding electrons are also found in the valence shell. They are referred to as lone pairs. For example, in ammonia (NH3), nitrogen has one lone pair. In most circumstances, lone pair electrons do not form bonds (they do in a special type of covalent bond).

Which stabatomic particle are involved in chemical bonding?

Chemical bonding primarily involves electrons, specifically the valence electrons of atoms. These are the outermost electrons that participate in forming bonds between atoms through sharing (covalent bonding) or transferring (ionic bonding) electrons. Protons and neutrons, which reside in the nucleus, do not directly participate in chemical bonding.
