Covalent compounds
A
Share electrons
B
transfer electrons
C
contain a sea of electrons
D
conduct electricity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outer most (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are primarily two forms of bonding that an atom can participate in: Covalent and Ionic. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms. Ionic bonds form when two or more ions come together and are held together by charge differences.

Detailed explanation-4: -Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between two atoms, but those electrons are not always shared equally. As the electronegativity difference between atoms in a covalent bond increases, electron sharing becomes less even.

Detailed explanation-5: -Covalent bond. The bond formed by sharing of one, two or three pairs of electrons between two atoms is known as covalent bond.
