Answer 1

In covalent bonding Non metals combine together by sharing electrons. The shared pair of electrons holds the two atoms together. It's called a covalent bond. The group of atoms bonded together in this way is called a molecule.

It occurs because of the tendency of the atom to have its valence shell full (`Octet` `r` `u` `l` `e`)

This is one of an example of how an atom shares its electrons with the other element in such a way that the two elements have full
`8` electron in their valence shell.

In the above example the `o` `xy` `g` `en` atom needs `2` more electrons So,it shares the `2` electrons from a `o` `xy` `g` `en` molecule to for a covalent bond molecule.
