    Covalent Bonding Webquest

    Activity #1- Introduction to Covalent Bonding

    Open http://tinyurl.com/kxjuwkr. Scroll down to the heading Covalent Bonding.

    1. As opposed to ____________________ bonding in which a complete transfer of electrons occurs,


    ____________________ bonding occurs when two or more elements __________________ electrons. Covalent bonding
    occurs because the atoms in the compound have a similar tendency for electrons (generally to _____________________
    electrons). This most commonly occurs when two ____________________ bond together. Because both of the
    nonmetals will want to ___________________ electrons, the elements involved will share electrons in an effort to
    _______________ their valence shells.

    2. How many valence electrons are in one atom of hydrogen?

    3. How many valence electrons does hydrogen need to have a full first shell?

    4. How does the hydrogen atom pick up another electron?

    5. What compound does hydrogen form?

    6. How do hydrogen atoms make a covalent bond?

    Activity #2- Introduction to Lewis Structures
