Covalent bonding is like a tug-of-war. Two atoms share their electrons, but each atom pulls those shared electrons towards itself. When the two atoms pull equally, it is called a nonpolar covalent bond. Atoms form bonds in order to achieve a stable, full outer energy level.For most atoms this means having eight electrons in the outer energy level, like the noble gases.ovalent bonding is like a tug-of-war.

One of the most typical causes of basement flooding is that the house has been constructed on an unsuitable site. Houses are usually built on sloped terrains, allowing accumulated water to drain. If your home has been built on the low part of your estate, chances are it will flooded frequently.
How to keep your basement from flooding, and what to do if it does.
