Covalent Bonding

What makes an atom "happy"?

• Forming a bond

• Giving or taking electrons

• Sharing electrons

• Having a complete outer shell

How do covalent bonds help atoms achieve a full outer shell?

• Electrons are transferred between atoms until both have full outer shells

• The atoms share electrons in order to get a full outer shell

• Covalent bonding turns the atoms into ions

• It helps the electrons jump to higher energy levels
