A molecular bond between two atoms where both atoms share the electron equally is called a covalent bond. However, often times, one atom in a covalent bond will have the electron a little bit more than the other atom.

∙ 14y agothe bond in which electrons are shared equally is non-polar covalent, non-polar means that it has the same electronegativity there fore the share of electrons are the same

As a bond between a hydrogen atom and a sulfur atom is formed electrons are?
The pair of electrons is shared to form a covalent bond.
Why does nitrogen have a lone pair of electrons?
in nitrogen there is five electrons in outermost shell,three electrons are in single form so they can make bond,while other two electrons act as lone pair
Bond between hydrogen and carbon?
The bond between carbon and hydrogen is covalent, in which carbon and hydrogen share a pair of electrons.
How many lone pairs of electrons exist on the central atom in ammonia?
One lone pair. The central atom is N (nitrogen) which has 5 valence electrons. Three of them are shared with 3 hydrogen atoms, leaving 2 electrons (1 lone pair) on the N.
Two hydrogen atoms form a hydrogen molecule by?
Two atoms can interact to form molecules by sharing a pair of electrons. This process is known as covalent bonding.
What happens when 1 pair of electrons are shared?
When one pair of electrons is shared, a single covalent bond exists. This bond can be either polar or nonpolar. If the electrons are equally shared, the bond is nonpolar. If the electrons are unequally shared, the bond is polar.
When a pair of electrons is shared is equally between two atoms the bond formed is called?
Covalent bonding !!
Shared pair of electrons holds a chemical bond called?
When two atoms share electrons, the shared pair of electrons form a chemical bond called a covalent bond.
A chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons is called a(n)?
a covalent bond is when two atoms share a pair of electrons
What is the bond called when a pair of electrons is shared equally between two atoms?
This is a covalent bond. If the electron were taken by one or the other atom, it would be an ionic bond. A covalent bond in which the electron(s) spend(s) more time near one or the other atom is a polar covalent bond.
What is a pair of electrons shared by two atoms in a covalent bond?
By definition, a covalent bond is a type of chemical bond characterized by the sharing of a pair of electrons between two atoms. If it's only one pair of electrons being shared, then it would be a single covalent bond, two pairs of electrons being shared is a double covalent bond, and three pairs of electrons shared would be a triple covalent bond.
Which type of bond has pair of electrons shared between atoms?
covalent bond
Is a covalent bond formed by a shared pair of electrons?
yes
How is a hydrogen bond different from a ionic bond?
Covalent and ionic bonds all have a shared pair of electrons and hydrogen has a pair of unshared electrons.
What is the covalent bond in which the atoms equally share a pair of electrons?
Nonpolar covalent bond
When a pair of electrons are shared between two atoms the bond is called?
A covalent bond
What type of bonds are oxygen and oxygen?
Polar Covalent Bond. This is when a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms in a molecule but the electrons are not equally shared. Because the Oxygen atom has a stronger pull on the electrons than the Hydrogen, the electrons will be more drawn to the Oxygen atom.
