Covalent Electrons

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Definition: A covalent bond is formed when the valence electrons from one atom are shared between two or more particular atoms. Example: Many compounds have covalent bonding, such as polymers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The electrons that are available to form bonds are known as valence electrons. Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in the electron orbits of an atom.
Detailed explanation-3: -Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell, or energy level, of an atom. For example, oxygen has six valence electrons, two in the 2s subshell and four in the 2p subshell. We can write the configuration of oxygen’s valence electrons as 2s²2p⁴.
