When atoms share electrons in one or more pairs, they form a new compound by covalent bonding.
a carbon atom can share electrons with up to four other atoms.
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
molecules
Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons
To form a molecule, atoms can share, lose, and gain electrons

the atoms share electrons
Atoms share electrons when they form covalent bonds.
covalent bonds
No. When atoms share electron pairs they form covalent bonds. Isotopes are atoms having different numbers of neutrons.
There are 2 non bonding pairs in a nitrogen molecule
Atoms involved in covalent bonding are called covalently bonded atoms. They share pairs of electrons to form stable molecules.
That type of bond is called "covalent" since they share the electons in their valence shells.
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
