What is required for two atoms to share electrons equally in a chemical bond?A.The two atoms must have equal and opposite charges.B.The two atoms must both be nonmetals.C.The two atoms must have the same number of valence electrons.D.The two atoms must be of the same element.SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS

2. A covalent chemical bond is one in which:a. electrons are removed from one atom and transferred to another atomso that the two atoms become oppositely charged.b. protons and neutrons are shared by two atoms so as to satisfy therequirements of both atoms.c. outer-shell electrons of two atoms are shared so as to satisfactorily fillthe outer electron shells of both atoms.d. outer-shell electrons of one atom are transferred to the inner electronshells of another atom.e. the inner-shell electrons of one atom are transferred to the outer shellof another atom.

A co-ordinate bond is formed by:(a)sharing of electrons contributed by both the atoms(b)complete transfer of electrons(c)sharing of electrons contributed by one atom only(d) none of these
