Hi there,
If i am right the bonds formed between any atoms depend on the satisfaction of Octet rule. So as the fluorine atom has seven electron in the last shell it well be needing one more to complete its octet.
So it will share that electron from the other fluorine.. End of the process the answer is definitely ONE COVALENT BONDbetween two fluorine atoms..

How is a covalent bond formed between atoms?
the atoms share electrons
What type of bond forms between two fluorine atoms?
A covalent bond would form between these atoms. Covalent bonds involve atoms sharing electrons.
Is Cl2 a covalent bond or ionic bond?
Covalent. There is no electronegativity difference between two atoms of the same element.
Which type of chemical bond is formed between two atoms of bromine?
Covalent.
What type of bond will be form between sulfur and chlorine atoms?
A covalent bond will be formed between these two atoms. As a reule of thumb, a two nonmetals will always forma covalent bond.
Do two fluorine atoms from an ionic bond?
No. the electronegativity difference between two fluorine atoms in F2 is zero and hence non-polar covalent bond is formed.
Is O and F considered covalent ionic or neither?
The words "covalent" and "ionic" refer to bonds between atoms, and not atoms themselves. If you are referring to O2 and F2, the forms in which we find oxygen and fluorine, respectively, then the bond between the two oxygens is considered to be non-polar and covalent. The same can be said of the bond between the two fluorine atoms in F2. If you are referring to the bonds in the compound formed by oxygen and fluorine, you must first identify that compound. It is OF2, and is named "fluorine oxide". The bonds between the oxygen and fluorine in fluorine oxide are slightly polar and covalent. The determining property is "electronegativity", which you should look up and review. By convention, when the electronegativity difference between atoms is: < about 0.4, the bond between them is non-polar and covalent between about 0.4 - 1.7, then bond between them is polar and covalent > 1.7, then bond between them is ionic.
What type of bonds form between fluorine and fluorine?
Fluorine's electronegativity is 3.98. The difference between two fluorine atoms is 0, so the bond between two fluorine atoms is nonpolar covalent.
What type of bond is formed between the two atoms in the compound HF?
Covalent. The bond is polar due to the high electronegativity of fluorine.
What bond type does fluorine have?
Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.
What is a covalent bond formed by?
covalent bonds are formed when electrons are shared between atoms.
How is a covalent formed between atoms?
the atoms share electrons
What type of bond is between 2 fluorine atoms?
Non-polar covalent.
What type of bond does hydrogen and fluorine make?
Fluorine atoms have a covalent bond between each other to form a covalent molecule. Fluorine bonded to a metal will have ionic bonds. Fluorine bonded to a non-meatl will have polar covalent bonding.
When electrons are trannferred between two atoms a covalent bond is formed?
Yes,when electrons are shared between two atoms covalent bond is formed
What forms when there is a covalent bond between atoms?
A compound is formed from atoms. Covalent bond is weaker.
What kind of covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared between atoms?
Covalent bonds and dative (coordinate) bonds are formed are formed by sharing electrons between the bonding atoms.
