How are electrons involved in chemical bonding?

Answer 1

In chemical bonding, there is either a transfer of electrons from one atom to another(ionic bond) or a sharing of electrons between 2 or more atoms(covalent bond) In chemical bonding, there is either a transfer of electrons from one atom to another(ionic bond) or a sharing of electrons between 2 or more atoms(covalent bond)

Answer 2

It's the electron in the outer mostshell of an atom that can/will chemically bond with another atom, electron have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus of an atom in a space called Electron Shells (energy levels).

Answer 3

Each element has shells of electrons and they are limited to how many can be shared in the outer shell. This lets us know what and how many atoms can combine with it. Hydrogen has the need for one electron in its outer shell. Oxygen has the need for two more electrons in its outer shell. Therefore, 2 hydrogen atoms can combine with oxygen.

Answer 4

When an atom has a certain number of electrons, and another atom has another number, they chemically bond, but not if their outermost shell is full. If an atom has three electrons and is missing seven in its outer shell, and another atom has seven and is missing three, these will be attracted to each other and bond.

Answer 5

In the representative elements, groups 1, 2, and 13-17, the valence electrons are involved in chemical bonding. In the transition metals, the d electrons may also be involved in chemical bonding, in addition to the valence electrons.

Answer 6

Electrons are involved in chemical bonding by being shared, transferred, or attracted between atoms to achieve a stable configuration. They can fill the outermost energy levels of atoms, leading to the formation of chemical bonds such as covalent, ionic, or metallic bonds. The interaction of electrons determines the strength and type of bond formed between atoms.

Answer 7

In a chemical bond, one atom either gives up one or more electrons to another (called an ionic bond) or two atoms share two ore more electrons (called a covalent bond)
