There are several types of diatomic molecules, that is molecules formed by two atoms.
Molecules formed by two identical atoms are frequent like gaseous hydrogen and oxygen (H2 and O2) while other molecules are made by different atoms like carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), and hydrogen chloride (HCl).
It is to be noted that diatomic molecules have to be distinct by substances that are not formed by separated molecules, but where two atoms are present in an equal stoichiometric ratio. For example, solid NaCl (that is common cooking salt) is a crystal with a number of sodium atoms equal to the number of chloride atoms. In a crystal a regular disposition of atoms of different kinds is present where individual molecules cannot be insulated.
The covalent bond is formed by sharing electrons.
Water (H2O) is the compound formed by two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
The answer depends on how the bond is formed. The bond between two atoms could be an ionic bond if the electrons are transferred between the two atoms or the bond could be covalent if the electrons are shared between the two atoms.
When one pair of electrons is shared between two atoms, a covalent bond is formed.
A new substance formed by the combination of two or more different atoms is called a compound. Compounds have unique properties different from the elements that make them up. Examples include water (H2O) formed from hydrogen and oxygen atoms, and salt (NaCl) formed from sodium and chlorine atoms.
Water is a COMPOUND because it is formed from atoms of two elements.
A covalent bond is formed between two atoms with similar electronegativity.
It is a Gas,and liquid Water is a COMPOUND because it is formed from atoms of two elements.
If you mean two atoms are sharing electrons, then a covalent bond is formed.
Yes,when electrons are shared between two atoms covalent bond is formed
Electrons are shared between these two atoms.
Electrons are shared between these two atoms.
