Covalent bonding

• Definition of covalent bonding

  A shared pair of electrons which had a strong electrostatic attraction its bonding is covalent bonding of 2 non metals
• Structure of covalent bonding

  It’s dots Carbon atoms and its lines being covalent bonds

  
• Intermolecular

  It has a weak intermolecular force
• solubility

  It has a non polar solubility
• Boiling point and melting point

  It’s has a low melting point and high boiling point
• Multiple covalent bonds

  Atoms share more than one electron and as such this leads to the formation of multiple bonds

  
• Lone pairs

  An outer shell pair that is not involved in chemical bonding

  
• Dative covalent bonds 


  One of the atoms supplies both of the electrons thats forms the bonds. Once formed a dative bond is no different is no different from any other covalent bond

  
• Single covalent bonds

  a bond where one pair of electrons are share between an atoms
