The question is incomplete here is the complete question.
When two hydrogen atoms approach each other to form a chemical bond, different interactions occur between the atoms. Identify the correct statements with respect to the interactions involved in the formation of chemical bond. select all that apply.
a) When two atoms of H approach each other, each electron repels the other nucleus.
b) When two atoms of H approach each other, each electron is attracted by the other nucleus.
c) When two atoms of H are infinitely far apart, they show attractive interactions.
d) When two atoms of H approach each other, the electrons attract each other.
e) When two atoms of H approach each other, the two nuclei repel each other.
Answer:
The correct choices are b) and e).
Step-by-step explanation:
Hydrogen atoms form the covalent bond with one each other because both of the atoms are identical and none of them donate or accept the electron.
When two hydrogen atoms come near to each other their electrons began to repel each other because of similar charges and their nucleus do the same.
while the electron of each atom began to attract the nucleus of both atom. As a result the distance between both atom decreases and electron density is established between two atoms which attract the neuclei of both atoms and the atoms are kept at distance at which repulsion and attraction force is balanced between two atoms.
