GCSE Chemistry Revision "Covalent Bonding 2: Bonding in Water, Ammonia and Methane"
Freesciencelessons・2 minutes read
Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between non-metal elements, forming strong bonds. Molecules like hydrogen chloride consist of two atoms joined by a single covalent bond. Water and ammonia molecules demonstrate how sharing electrons forms covalent bonds, ensuring full outer energy levels for all atoms involved.
Insights
- Covalent bonding occurs through electron sharing between non-metal elements, creating strong bonds like those in hydrogen chloride and water.
- Water and ammonia exemplify covalent bonding by sharing electrons to form stable molecules, with water having two covalent bonds and ammonia forming three, ensuring complete outer energy levels for all atoms.
