उत्तर
- A single covalent bond is formed by sharing one pair of electrons between atoms, each atom contributes one electron. For example., Molecule of hydrogen [H-H]
- A double covalent bond is formed by the sharing of two pairs of electrons between two atoms. For example., Molecule of oxygen [O=O]
- A triple covalent bond is formed by the sharing of three pairs of electrons between two atoms. For example., Molecule of nitrogen [N≡N]
