What kind of bond is formed when water is made?

A covalent bond is formed when water is made, where oxygen shares electrons with two hydrogen atoms to form a molecule. This sharing of electrons creates a stable arrangement and allows water to maintain its liquid form at room temperature.


When non metal atoms bond with each other what kind of electron configuration does each nonmetal atom tend to rnd up with?

Non-metal atoms form covalent bonds in which their unpaired valence electrons are shared between the atoms. This sharing has the overall effect of giving both atoms an octet of valence electrons, or two valence electrons in the case of hydrogen.


When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom what kind of bond do they form?

When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom, they form an ionic bond. In this type of bond, the atom that loses electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the atom that gains the electrons becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions holds them together, resulting in the formation of an ionic compound. This type of bonding typically occurs between metals and nonmetals.


A large oxygen atom shares electrons with smaller hydrogen atoms. what kind of molecule does this form?

That would be a description of water, i.e. H2O


What kind of Cumberland bond involves and even sharing of electrons?

A nonpolar covalent bond involves an even sharing of electrons.

When a covalent bond is formed what kind of electrons is used in the bond?

In a covalent bond, the electrons used are typically the valence electrons of the atoms involved. These are the outermost electrons. Each atom contributes one or more valence electrons to form a shared pair in the bond.


Equal shared attraction between valence electrons results in what kind of bond?

A non-polar covalent bond.


Which kind of bond electrons given or taken?

In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in one atom gaining electrons (anion) and the other atom losing electrons (cation). In a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms, allowing them to complete their valence shells.


How can you tell when atoms bond based on the valence electrons?

If I understand the theory correctly, then it is safe to assume that any molecular bond is based on the valence system. Valence bonding occurs when orbitals of electrons are slightly overlapped. Your question should rather be 'what kind of valence bond occured in the bond. There are 2 types namely sigma and pi. Sigma bonds occur when the orbitals of two shared electrons overlap head-to-head. Pi bonds occur when two orbitals overlap when they are parallel (wikipedia). So it is safe to assume that any bond that is covalent can be described using valence theory.


What kind of elements have the same number of valence electrons?

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outer energy level. Each period shares many similar characteristics, one of which being the amount of electrons in the outer energy level. If you are unfamiliar, the Periods are the Vertical Columns, and Families are the Rows. I hope this helps you.


What kind of covalent bond diagram only shows the outer layer of electrons?

A Lewis structure diagram shows the outer layer of electrons in a covalent bond. It uses dots to represent the valence electrons of each atom involved in the bond, showing how they are shared between atoms to form the bond.


How many valence electrons are there in an atom of arsenic iodine calcium tin and sulfur?

What kind of question is that lol I don't even know that and I just studyed that last semester lol

When atoms share valence electrons to form a chemical bond what kind of bond is formed?

Chemical bonds don't form electrons; an element has valance electrons. Covalent bonds are formed when elements share their valance electrons. An element wants to have 8 valance electrons. That is when it is an "happy atom". For example, carbon has has four valance electons, so it typically bonds with hydrogen and oxygen to get those four valance electrons.


Which electrons are shared in molecules?

In metallic bonding, the valence electrons freely 'jump' from atom to atom, forming kind of an electron sea.
