Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which type of bond is formed by two nonmetals?
A
covalent bonds
B
ionic bonds
C
metallic bonds
D
gas bond
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals. The sharing of electron pair takes place between their atoms and a covalent bond is formed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Covalent compounds are formed when two nonmetals react with each other. Since hydrogen is a nonmetal, binary compounds containing hydrogen are also usually covalent compounds.

Detailed explanation-4: -A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals that have similar electronegativities. Neither atom is “strong” enough to attract electrons from the other. For stabilization, they share their electrons from outer molecular orbit with others. An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two basic types of covalent bonds: polar and nonpolar.
