Question

1. a covalent compound is likely to be known for creating which of the following?

a molecular compound of atoms bonded to other atoms.
a strong and rigid crystalline structure.
a sea of electrons that allow for flexibility and malleability.
a strong and inflexible structure that will not bend or shatter when broken.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds form by sharing electrons between atoms, creating molecules. Option B (strong rigid crystalline) is ionic. Option C (sea of electrons) is metallic. Option D (strong inflexible) is not covalent. So, covalent compounds are molecular with bonded atoms.

Answer:

A. A molecular compound of atoms bonded to other atoms.
