Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.
Unlike ionic bonding, covalent bonding may have single, double bonds or triple bonds between two atoms. These bonds are formed in such a way that the two atoms obey the octet rule. The bond occurs via the overlapping of atomic orbitals. A single bond is formed when two electrons are shared. A double bond is formed when four electrons are shared. Sharing of six electrons may result in a triple bond. The characteristics of compounds with covalent bonds include strong bonding between two atoms due to similar electronegativity values.
