To answer this, we recall the concept of covalent bonding. Covalent bonding involves atoms sharing electrons to complete their outer (valence) shells and achieve a stable electron configuration (like a noble gas). The first option matches this: atoms bond (share electrons) to complete their outer shell. The other options are incorrect: atoms aren't "happy" or "depressed" (second), covalent bonding is about bonding (not un - bonding to form new atoms, third), and atoms don't avoid each other to not hit (fourth) in covalent bonding.
