Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Electrons are being shared between atoms in a certain compound. Which elements could most likely form this compound?
A
lithium (Li) and fluorine (F)
B
aluminum (Al) and iodine (I)
C
sulfur (S) and oxygen (O)
D
iron (Fe) and chlorine (Cl)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Electrons are being shared between atoms in a certain compound. Which elements could most likely form this compound? lithium (Li) and fluorine (F)

Detailed explanation-2: -Covalent bonding is the sharing of electrons between atoms. This type of bonding occurs between two atoms of the same element or of elements close to each other in the periodic table. This bonding occurs primarily between nonmetals; however, it can also be observed between nonmetals and metals.

Detailed explanation-3: -Structure of Organic Compounds A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei.

Detailed explanation-4: -Covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the atoms. Q. Assertion :Chemical bonds in organic compounds are covalent in nature. Reason: Covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons in the bonding atoms.

Detailed explanation-5: -SO4 is bonded covalently, meaning the electrons are shared between the Sulfur and Oxygen atoms. This means that the Sulfur atom does not lose or gain any electrons. Since a normal Sulfur atom has six valence electrons, we know by Octet’s Rule that the atom would like two more electrons to fill its outer shell.
