Answer;

Covalent bond

Explanation;

  • Covalent is a type of bond which occurs between non-metals and results from the sharing of electrons between different non-metal atoms.
  • When carbon and other atoms present in molecules of Tyler share electrons, they form covalent bonds.
  • The sharing of electrons during formation of covalent results to each atom achieving a stable configuration, that is each atom involved achieves an octet configuration.
