  • Covalent bonds hold atoms together because they


  • Options
  • A. fill shells without giving atoms much charge
  • B. bring electrons closer to protons
  • C. Both A & B
  • D. use forces between nuclei as well as forces between electrons

  • Correct Answer
  • Both A & B 

    Explanation

    Covalent bonds hold atoms together because the attraction between the positively charged nuclei and the negatively charged shared electrons is greater than the repulsions between the nuclei themselves.
