Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is d. Atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.

Explanation:

In a covalent bond, electrons of the last energy level are shared, to reach the octet (except for the Hydrogen that reaches its stability with 2 electrons). This type of bond occurs between two nonmetallic compounds. Example: H202 (hydrogen peroxide) formed between oxygen and hydrogen.
