Chemical Bonding - Result Question 64
####39. The bond between two identical non-metal atoms has a pair of electrons
$(1986,1 M)$
(a) unequally shared between the two
(b) transferred fully from one atom to another
(c) with identical spins
(d) equally shared between them
Show Answer
Solution:
- Bonds between identical non-metal is purely covalent due to same electronegativities of the bonded atoms. Hence, the bonded atoms have equal holds on the shared pair of electrons.
