What causes atoms to form covalent bonds? each atom and the shared electronsthe nuclei of the two atomsthe valence electrons of the two atoms

energy levelsprotons and neutronsvalence electrons

Answer 1

In a covalent bond, two atoms are held together by the attraction between each atom and the shared electrons. the number of covalent bonds that an atom can form depends on the number of valence electrons in the atom.

Answer 2

Answer: each atom and the shared electrons,

valence electrons

Explanation: A covalent compound is defined as the compound which is formed from the sharing of electrons between the element that are combining together.

These compounds are most likely to be formed when two non-metals combine together. For Examples:
`F_2`

Flourine is an element with tomic number 9 and has 7 valence electrons

`F:9:1s^22s^22p^5`

Thus for formation of a
`F_2` molecule, they share their valence electrons and attain stable configuration.
