- What type of bond is formed between two Oxygen atoms? Explain specifically what will happen to form the bond.
Covalent 2 oxygen atoms form a double bond by sharing 4 e- between them
pg. 22
- What type of bond is formed between Sodium and Chlorine? Explain specifically what will happen to form the bond.
An ionic bond is formed. Na gives its 1 valence e- to CI then Cl takes the electrons the electron and adds it to the 7 it already has to be stable

- Why do noble gases rarely form compounds?
They are already stable. Their outermost energy levels are full
