Covalent Bonding

Check us out at http://www.tutorvista.com//videos
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding that is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, and other covalent bonds. In short, the attraction-to-repulsion stability that forms between atoms when they share electrons is known as covalent bonding.
Covalent bonding includes many kinds of interaction, including σ-bonding, π-bonding, metal to metal bonding, agostic interactions, and three-center two-electron bonds. The term covalent bond dates from 1939.The prefix co- means jointly, associated in action, partnered to a lesser degree, etc.; thus a "co-valent bond", essentially, means that the atoms share "valence", such as is discussed in valence bond theory. In the molecule H2, the hydrogen atoms share the two electrons via covalent bonding. Covalency is greatest between atoms of similar electronegativities. Thus, covalent bonding does not necessarily require the two atoms be of the same elements, only that they be of comparable electronegativity. Although covalent bonding entails sharing of electrons, it is not necessarily delocalized. Furthermore, in contrast to electrostatic interactions ("ionic bonds") the strength of covalent bond depends on the angular relation between atoms in polyatomic molecules.
Covalent bonds are affected by the electronegativity of the connected atoms. Two atoms with equal electronegativity will make non-polar covalent bonds such as H-H. An unequal relationship creates a polar covalent bond such as with Cl-H.

@Rebun24 Not as long as man has the stupid gene.

@darknessjarson religious nut. science is the true master. religion came about when we didnt have answers for everyday questions. now that we do, religion has taken a back seat.

[darknessjarson]

God will be always in the top of the subjects...

[Rebun24]

is it possible to come across any science video that doesnt have a damn creationist/athiest debate!?

@gulfland You didn't answer my question, which implies either that you didn't read it, or that you don't care to actually have a discussion, thus if you continue to avoid the previously asked question, then I will treat this as a pointless discussion with a brick wall.

[gulfland]

@TheReasonWhyGuy Do you think that the Almighty God Created you for nothing and that you would not be returned to God?! So exalted is God , the Sovereign, the Truth; there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

@gulfland Do you think it's just, that finite beings, living for finite times, are punished for an infinite time, for their finite crimes?

[gulfland]

@TheReasonWhyGuy only those who will fear God abnd seek His Forgiveness will be reminded,but the wretched one will avoid it, who will enter and burn in the greatest Fire,Neither dying nor living in it.

@gulfland

I guess you have fun spreading around the idea of the quran is full of science.

While using horoscope-prediction like methods to interpret it XD

The same kind of people assert that the bible is full of the same kind of predictions.
