Answer:

Covalent compounds are always formed between two non-metals.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is FALSE!

Covalent compounds are always formed between two non-metals. The non-metal can not lose electrons they can only gain the electron or they can share the electron to complete its octet.

Hope this helps!
