Its valence band (i.e. outermost s and p orbitals) are completely full already.
Helium doesn't form any kind of chemical bond. Every atom has its specialty, they don't form every type of bond.
An ionic bond will form. Covalent bond, however, is when the two atoms share electrons when they bond.
a nitrogen atom in an amino group and a carbon atom in a carboxyl group
A phosphorus atom gains three electrons to form a phosphide anion when forming a chemical bond to a metal.
An atoms electrons tend to achieve a more stable energy state. If that can be achieved through bonding with a nearby atom, then it will bond with the other atom to achieve the more stable state.
yes, it makes a covalent bond at that point

transferring or sharing electrons
a nitrogen atom in an amino group and a carbon atom in a carboxyl group
Together they form a chemical bond.A sigma or pi bond
By forming chemical bonds, atoms get more stable than their individual state. It can be explained by the release of energy while forming a chemical bond.
Carbon can form four chemical bonds.
A phosphorus atom gains three electrons to form a phosphide anion when forming a chemical bond to a metal.
Helium doesn't form any kind of chemical bond. Every atom has its specialty, they don't form every type of bond.
An ionic bond will form because the cation (Mg) is a metal and the anion (N) is a nonmetal. The chemical formula for magnesium nitride would be Mg3N2.
In general, it is a valence electron that an atom makes available to form chemical bonds.
