But the reason only certain elements(atoms) can bond with only specific types is because of their valence electrons. The number of valence electrons depends if the element can bond with the other. The number you want to remember is 8. You can combine Na(sodium) and Cl(Chlorine). Na has 1 valence electron and Cl has 7 valence electrons, when you combine them they will have 8 valence electrons. The process takes alot of energy to combine them. NaCl you would know as sodium Chlorine or known as table salt. There are more complicated ways called covalent bonds but thet is the basic reason only certain elements bond.
Remember, ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals.

How many different atoms can carbon bond with at one time?
Under normal conditions, carbon will bond with a maximum of 4 other atoms.
Do atoms always bond to other atoms?
No, not always. Some can exist in what's called a "monatomic state". That is, they exist as a single atom, either due to artificial separation from other atoms, or because they have no need to bond to other atoms. Atoms tend to bond to other atoms to become more stable, but atoms that are already stable tend not to bond. Examples of such are the noble gasses, which rarely bond except through synthesis.
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally (one atoms pulls more than the other) the bond is said to be?
Polar bond apex :)
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequall(one atoms pulls more than the other ) the bond is said to be?
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally, the bond is said to be polar. This results in a partial positive and partial negative charge on the atoms involved in the bond, creating a dipole moment.
What are donated or shared when two atoms form a bond?
When two atoms form a bond, electrons are donated or shared. In an ionic bond, one atom donates electrons to the other, while in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between the atoms.
Can carbon atoms bond with other atoms?
yes
Why do some atoms bond with other atoms?
Atoms combine with other atoms to form compound. It makes the atoms stable.
What type of bond is formed if atoms donate electrons to other atoms when the elements are combined?
Cations donate atoms to form an ionic bond.
When are atoms of elements prone to bond with other atoms?
when they are in contact
How many carbon atoms can bond to a single hydrogen atom?
Atoms of elements have a fixed number of electrons that can bond with other atoms. Carbon has 4 electrons that can bond with other atoms. So 4 hydrogen atoms can bond with one carbon atom.
When atoms bond with other atoms what do types of bonds do they form?
ionic
What type of bond if formed if atoms donate electrons to other atoms when the elements are combined?
Cations donate atoms to form an ionic bond.
Atoms combine on what forces?
Atoms combine with each other by a gum which is called attrection or called bond. the bond is like a gum or fevicol . bond or this gum have many types which is depended on atomic nature who combine. if atoms nature have metallic nature ,bond types ionic bond. if atoms have partneric nature bond types covalance bond. and third other types bond called subcovalance bond.
How many different atoms can carbon bond with at one time?
Under normal conditions, carbon will bond with a maximum of 4 other atoms.
When iodine atoms bond with other iodine atoms the bond type is called a?
When iodine atoms bond with other iodine atoms, the bond type is called a covalent bond. In this case, two iodine atoms share a pair of electrons, resulting in the formation of a diatomic molecule (Iā). This type of bonding occurs because both iodine atoms have the same electronegativity, allowing for an equal sharing of electrons.
Two atoms of bromine react with each other to form what kind of bond?
Two bromine atoms will form a nonpolar covalent bond when they react with each other.
Do atoms always bond to other atoms?
No, not always. Some can exist in what's called a "monatomic state". That is, they exist as a single atom, either due to artificial separation from other atoms, or because they have no need to bond to other atoms. Atoms tend to bond to other atoms to become more stable, but atoms that are already stable tend not to bond. Examples of such are the noble gasses, which rarely bond except through synthesis.
