 What is covalent bonding?
A covalent bond is a
chemical bond that involves the
sharing of electron pairs between
atoms. These electron pairs are
known as shared pairs
or bonding pairs, and the stable
balance of attractive and repulsive
forces between atoms, when they
share electrons, is known
as covalent bonding.
