Q

in covalent bonds the atoms………..electrons

A

share electrons

17
Q

metal atoms become

A

positive ions

18
Q

non metal atoms become

A

negative ions

19
Q

what holds covalent bonds together

A

the positive charge of both atoms attract the negative charge of the shared pair of electrons.
(opposites attract)
