VSEPR and Covalent Compounds and Polyatomic

What two types of atoms make a covalent bond?

• 2 Nonmetals
• 1 Nonmetal and 1 Metal
• 2 Metals
• 2 Noble Gases

In chemical compounds, covalent bonds form when

• the electronegativity difference between two atoms is very large.
• electrons are completely transferred between two metals.
• pairs of electrons are shared between two nonmetal atoms.
• two nonmetal atoms are attracted to each other by opposite charges.
