The statement above is FALSE.
Covalent bond is formed when electron pairs are shared between atoms. The electrons pairs that are shared are called bonding pair. There are different types of covalent bond, we have the single covalent bond and double covalent bond, depending on the number of electron pair that is shared by the atoms.
