Question

question 7 (1 point) listen which of the following can form covalent bond with equal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms 1) hi 2) cl2 3) mg2o 4) h2o2

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Equal - sharing of electrons in a covalent bond occurs when the electronegativity difference between the combining atoms is zero. In $Cl_2$, two chlorine atoms have the same electronegativity, so the electrons in the covalent bond are shared equally. In $HI$, $H_2O_2$, there is an electronegativity difference between the atoms leading to unequal sharing. $Mg_2O$ is an ionic compound.

Answer:

  1. $Cl_2$
