Only non-metal+non-metal is considered covalent. Plus, protons are NEVER shared; just the electrons.

Does a lightning bolt occurs when billions of protons are transferred at the same time?
No. All electrical currents and discharges, including lightning, involve the movement of electrons rather than protons, as electrons are much easier to move.
How many protons and electrons are in phosphorus?
15 electrons and 15 protons
What forces hold network solids together?
All chemical bonds, including those found in network solids, derive from the electromagnetic force. Positively charged protons attract negatively charged electrons. Although atoms start off with an equal number of protons and electrons, and are therefore electrically neutral, the electrons rearrange themselves in ways that create attractions between atoms. Covalent bonds
What is the number of protons neutrons and electrons of carbon 12?
Carbon-12 has 6 protons, neutrons, and electrons.
What can you say about the number of protons and electrons on a neutral object?
The numbers of protons and of electrons in a neutral object are the same.
Which of the following are transferred or shared when two atoms react chemically Protons neutrons electrons photons?
When atoms react, electrons are shared or transferred.
A covalent compound has?
a covalent compound has protons and electrons
Does a covalent bond transfer protons?
no, electrons are shared
Covalent bonds are the formation of two or more chemicals sharing what A protons B neutrons C electrons?
covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons
Is it true or false in the formation covalent or ionic bonds is it the protons that are shared gained or lost?
False -it is the electrons not the protons.
Where do electrons get there energy in photosystem 2?
Excited electrons are transferred to an electron transport chain.
Which type of particles are transferred during static charging?
Neutrons & Electrons. Protons cannot be transferred, lost or gained.
Do the protons and electrons hold an atom together?
Atoms are held up together by sharing electrons (covalent bonding) or by transfer of electrons (ionic bond).
How many protons and electrons are in the following ionsC4 plus?
The ion carbon C4+ has 6 protons and 2 electrons.
How ions are formed?
Ions are formed when electrons are transferred among atoms (gained or lost). The charge is determined by the inequal number of protons and electrons. A negatively-charged atom (more electrons than protons) is called an "anion." A positively-charged atom (fewer electrons than protons) is called a "cation." The electrons are located outside the nucleus, while the protons are inside the nucleus. Thus electrons are the charged particles being transferred from one atom to another and not the protons.
Which type of bond is held together by the attractions between the protons in the nucleus and the shared electrons?
A covalent bond is held together by the attractions between the protons in the nucleus and shared electrons.
How do electrons act in covalent bond?
Given that electrons repell other electrons while attracting protons in atomic nucleii, electrons interact in covalent bonds by finding an arrangement which brings them as close as possible to as many protons as possible while remaining as far as possible from other electrons. The particular feature of a covalent bond which differentiates it from other types of bonds is that a given electron does not limit itself to a single atomic nucleus, but orbits multiple nuclei.
