The attraction that forms between atoms when they share electrons is known as a?
A bond where electrons are shared is known as a covelent bond. If the electrons are shared evenly (such as Cl2) it is a non polar covelent bond. If one atom has a slightly stronger pull because of a higher elctronegativity value (such as H2O) it is a polar covelent bond. Ionic bonds are when electrons are taken leaving a positive and negative ion.
What is a covalent bond made out of?
A covalent bond is made out of electrostatic attraction. When 2 or more atoms share electrons, the electrons are attracted to all the 2 or more nuclei of the atoms involved, and this shared attraction holds the molecule together.

The atom with the what attraction for shared electrons in the molecule is the what atom.?
The atom with the greater attraction for shared electrons in the molecule is the more electronegative atom.

What is the metallic bond an attraction between?
A metal action and the shared electrons that surround it.
What is the attraction of two atoms for a shared pair of electrons that holds the atoms together.?
Sharing of electrons between two atoms is called covalent bonding.
Which has a greater attraction for electrons Fluorine or Oxygen?
when compared to oxygen, fluorine has greater electronegativity (greater attraction for shared pair of electrons).
Why sharing electrons causes atoms to bond together?
When electrons are shared between atoms, the nuclei of both atoms experience attraction towards the electrons and vice versa. At a certain distance, the attraction is maximal because the repulsion between the nuclei is small while the attraction of each nuclei to the electrons is strong. Thus, the atoms are held together by their attraction to the shared electrons.
When electrons are shared the type of bonding is called?
Chemical bonds are what form molecules from constituent atoms. When atoms share electrons the type of inter-molecular attraction is called a covalent bond.
What is the force of attraction between the nulcei of atoms and shared electrons?
Covalent bond
What metallic bond is the attraction between?

What is the force of attraction between the nuclei of atoms and the shared electrons?
Covalent bond
