What is a bond called that occurs between nonmetals and nonmetals?
- A Ionic bond
- B Covalent bond
- C Nonmetal bond
- D None of the above
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
A covalent bond occurs between nonmetals and nonmetals when they share electrons. In this type of bond, the atoms involved have similar electronegativities, which means they have a similar ability to attract electrons. As a result, they share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This sharing of electrons creates a strong bond between the atoms, forming a molecule.
